Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 79 Kbps about 0.1 Mbps (tested with 579 kB) Download Speed is:: 10 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2) Test Time:: Thu Dec 1 12:08:39 UTC 2005 Bottom Line:: 1X faster than 56K 1MB download in 102.4 sec Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 42.25 % of your hosts average (118.145) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-DVG61J3N8 :::..
