coknuck Posted March 11, 2006 CID Share Posted March 11, 2006 If you have download accelerators such as the Google Web Accelerator please turn them OFF before testing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amc11890 Posted March 11, 2006 CID Share Posted March 11, 2006 Just use test ur speeds at another place, if this one is not working for you, you know results are not true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted March 11, 2006 CID Share Posted March 11, 2006 Just use test ur speeds at another place, if this one is not working for you, you know results are not true The problem with that is that some people in here want a validation of the speed, and it is hard to do that, if it is not done on this site. Otherwise you get an argument and sometimes a little or a lot of flaming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Fan Posted March 12, 2006 CID Share Posted March 12, 2006 The problem with that is that some people in here want a validation of the speed, and it is hard to do that, if it is not done on this site. Otherwise you get an argument and sometimes a little or a lot of flaming. I don't really remember you specifically asking you to always test here... I think I told you a few times download a large file and see what it finishes at. And I didn't need a validation of your speed, I knew what your speed was. I just wanted you to know that you were downloading at 190kb/s with Dway. I guess arguing is bad now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted March 12, 2006 CID Share Posted March 12, 2006 I really was not pointing a finger at you. Sorry if it seemed that way. It really is necessary sometimes to help people, and to check to see if people are just being nuckle-heads or just newbies. OK. And I was having a problem. OK Thanks.

FallowEarth Posted March 12, 2006 CID Share Posted March 12, 2006 jdandco, the results are do to software on your PC. Could be anything really. As an alternative, try the test as laid out here: http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-12193 Post back results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FallowEarth Posted March 12, 2006 CID Share Posted March 12, 2006 Talk about rehashing the past. Anyway, it's way off topic. Sort it out via PM if you must, but spare us the drama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
