terraslayer Posted January 10, 2006 CID Share Posted January 10, 2006 I just got roadrunner today and did the speed tests, here are my scores: :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 29109 Kbps about 29.1 Mbps (tested with 12160 kB) Download Speed is:: 3553 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2) Test Time:: Tue Jan 10 12:14:57 EST 2006 Bottom Line:: 520X faster than 56K 1MB download in 0.29 sec Diagnosis: Awesome! 20% + : 577.43 % faster than the average for host (rr.com) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-WL67AP0YZ :::..

I think it was just so fast because I just got it today, perhaps in a fewweeks or so it might get degraded or something. I was going to use a cablenut tweak, but not sure which to use. I just added the Cable & DSL 6000 768 tweak, so not sure if that has anything to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swimmer Posted January 10, 2006 CID Share Posted January 10, 2006 That is possible.. he might be the only one on his node right now.. rr is upgrading their equipment right now.. The "upgrade" is scheduled for 1/9-1/11.. possible yes.. going to stay that way.. most likely not.. i dont know what plans they offer..

cdf216 Posted January 10, 2006 CID Share Posted January 10, 2006 Got news for you terraslayer, your result is cached and false. The fastest speed Roadrunner offers is 15 Mbps down and that is in tampa bay, I know because I have that package, you're on the 5000/384 package. next time you test clear your cache, don't use any web accellerator software and don't hit the back button. Here's the fastest legit speed you can get with roadrunner: ::..

cdf216 Posted January 20, 2006 CID Share Posted January 20, 2006 I know terraslayer's result is cached 15 Mbps is the fastest speed you can get with roadrunner. Not even business customers can get faster than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
