  1. Well, it will give you an accurate result if most of the sites you visit are in the United States. The United States being the center of much of the internet activity I would say that it's still a good benchmark for the rest of the world. But with that many hops between you and the server you can't really be mad at your ISP if you can't pull your full speeds. But you can still compare to "Net.au" (other Aussies). The Speed Index is something I really haven't explained yet, it's a rolling average of the tests taken world-wide over the last 30 minutes (updated every 5 minutes). I haven't really explained this yet because it's still an evolving concept. I know, I need to get servers in Australia... and many more places. If you know of anyone willing to donate a server down under let me know. - CA3LE
  2. You're getting a better connection to the TestMy.net server during those hours. Usually people inquire when it's the other way around. You're going to get varied speeds around the internet. For instance, I do a download from Winamp.com for instance... pull about 20Mbps... I then run a test here and get >50Mbps..... downloading a file doesn't necessarily tell you what your actual connection speed is.
  3. I ran it last night... worked fine on my end. 60 minute interval.

  4. There was a problem like this but it should be resolved. I'm also in OSX by the way. I just ran the scheduled test a few days ago and it worked perfectly for me. I'll give it a try right now and let you know what I find. -CA3LE
  5. Gobble Gobble... Hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving

    Welcome to the site, enjoy your stay. - CA3LE
  10. Good to hear, glad I could be of assistance. - CA3LE
  11. Welcome to TestMy.net jackytsui... I hope you find what you're looking for.
  12. Good luck, let us know how it goes.
  13. Yeah, I had a feeling that they charged more outside the US. Lame. Damn, Windows ME?!! I haven't seen that first hand in over 10 years. I can't believe that you didn't have problems with it... you must have been the only one. Ubuntu is awesome, I've built a bunch of Ubuntu machines... they run great. And if you're already running Linux the transition should be smooth. They just released a new version Oct. Get it here. What is the newegg equivalent in the UK?
  14. Your host may not have very good peering. Read this >> https://testmy.net/legit-speed-test.php The results that you get here can be trusted more over a test that you take on a server a couple hundred miles away. The problem with many smaller and some larger ISP's is that they don't usually have good peering relationships. But if they are really small there may not be anything they can do... that's just their quality of service. To fix the problem they would have to get more outbound providers. Good luck. Welcome to the site by the way.
  15. There actually was a bug with that. I had to let it run last night to see what you were talking about. Thank you for reporting this I've corrected the issue.
  16. Working fine on my end as well. What was the problem that you were having?
  17. Have you thought about a Mac Mini? They're awesome.
  18. gzelman, you may want to read http://xplornetsucks.blogspot.com/2007/12/so-what-we-know-about-xplornet.html Does anyone have any insight into this?
  19. Welcome knev
  20. Well, if you're in Italy the chances are that your speeds will be effected going all the way to our server in Dallas, TX USA. Are you experiencing slower than normal speeds everywhere?
  21. If you are used to the networking from older version of Windows then the Windows 7 network settings are a little weird. In my experience I've found that most of the same stuff is there, you just have to dig for it. It's obvious that MS tried to make it easier and more simple... but at the expense of people who were so familiar with the old way.
  22. Damn, 107Mbps... I wish Cox offered that
  23. Welcome to the site toneeels. First, what is the advertised speed of your service. What operating system are you using and what are the general specs of your system. Also, please let us know what the details of your network are... any routers, switches, hubs... provide some more details and we'll try our best to help you. - CA3LE
  24. cool
  25. Well, I changed it so it doesn't look like a battle thread.... you can make a title that peaks curiosity but a simple title of "yup" is too short. We change titles when they're that short, sorry. ... but seriously, this topic is now mostly just our banter..
