H2SO4 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I was wondering how exactlyu you check you connection speed. I have comcast high speed cable, and when i go into network connections it says among abunch of other things "speed: 10 Mbps) i find this realy fast. I thought comcast had an upstream of 4mbps.

Speed Test Link: http://www.dslreports.com/stest?loc=97'>http://www.dslreports.com/stest?loc=97 Link to Speed Test Main Page: http://www.dslreports.com/stest Just for reference, here's my results from the first test listed above: Your download speed: 2344382 bps, or 2289 kbps. A 286.1 KB/sec transfer rate. Your upload speed: 320688 bps, or 313 kbps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
