You get ~ 250 Kbps, the advertised package is UP TO 384 Kbps, what's wrong? . Do yet get faster upload speeds elsewhere?

Seems OK, What's your advertised upload speed?

I now get: :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 6226 Kbps about 6.2 Mbps (tested with 7458 kB) Download Speed is:: 760 kB/s Tested From:: http://matrixau.net Test Time:: Bottom Line:: 111X faster than 56K 1MB download in 1.35 sec Diagnosis: Awesome! 20% + : 366.72 % faster than the average for host (net.au) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-LCIRWS78X Very big improvment really... (for me). And even better: :::..

Exactly the same routes, except the ThePlanet router on hop 20 testmy.net has compared to mine using a ServerMatrix router on hop 20, that's about it... It's got me stuffed as to why you'd see such a big differance in speed :-s.

Traceroute to both testmy.net and matrixau.net and let's see the why .

Haha, oops .

Wow! I just did some configs CA3LE recommended, and stunning resualts, I manger to max my connection easy to my server now at 1.19 MB/s and I'm in Australia! . Try now everyone! . lol.

Done, thakns. .

It seems like the mirrors have a differant method of testing compared to the normal testmy.net server. I somehow get 600 KB/s test from the testmy.net server, which I don't think is really possible for a single download thread to an international server (I've never seen that), but to every single other mirror only about 300 KB/s (Including my own). If I do tests locally on servers in Sydney, Australia I get 1100 KB/s, my connection is 1.2 MB/s.

Red Hat Linux Enterprise 3... hummm..

Lol, Hard cap was introduced in NSW, this month, and a few other states the month before, before that you could download over 80 GB and still be uncapped. Other ISP's are bringing in their own DSLAM's, yes. But are you able to get onto one like you can a Telstra DSLAM? Nope. Telstra has also announced that it will be upgrading it's DSLAM network to support ADSL2 & ADSL2+ technology. Still as for Telstra being sold, it's not going to happen... Why would they? . - Shane.

Umm. you're at the Australian Providers section... lol. Why post asian ISP's?

Lol, Telstra isn't being sold... Where did you get that source of information? I think Telstra Wholesale will be sold and not owned by Telstra, but that's not even happening yet I don't think. As for my cap, yes 10 GB, unfortuante, It's only been non Unlimited as of this month and on, but I'm sure new plans will be released. Now you see, Telstra cannot bring out amazing plans because the wholesale customers will complain that's it's not fair, and if Telstra do decide to bring out better plans they have to lower wholesale prices aswell, otherwise the ACCC will be onto them for unfair trading, Bigpond can provide good plans for it's customers but obviousely will not lower the prices for wholesale customers because it will cost them too much, this is why the two (Telstra and Telstra Wholesale) should be two differant things, not owned by the one company, Telstra. Now you see what I mean? . - Shane.

Hehe love whirlpool! .

Test run on 28/3/2005 @ 4:52 P.M. Mirror: Optus Test type: Cable Your connection speed: kbps: 8851 KB/s: 1106.375 Mbps: 8.6435546875 From a local server. That is from my Bigpond Cable connection again.

How about now? (Re-test), I'm trying a few tweaks to improve speeds on Apache.

Oh really.. . hehe, CA3LE better have a look .

Hey peoples, can I get a few people to test the newest mirror to testmy.net - https://testmy.net/o-mirror-ShaneAU. I just want to see what kind of speeds people can archive there, it has the potential to max out probably 99.9% of people's connections. https://testmy.net/o-mirror-ShaneAU, show your results here . Thanks! - Shane.

haha Telstra gets sold? Unlikly. I'm with Bigpond Cable. It's actually 1.19 MB/s to local mirrors . Now you tell me in this fourm how many people can get that kind of speed for ~ 45 USD per month.
