The Reverend Posted January 10, 2005 CID Share Posted January 10, 2005 My goodness ....it is PATHETIC when a v90 modem "blows away" a DirecWay Commercial Account (such as mine). My BEST speed ever has been 1088 ....yet it typically hangs out around 942Kbps. I am SUPPOSED to be getting 1.5Mbps down and 256k (enhanced) 'up'! But ...they lied. It cost me $1,300.00 up front to get the equipment (a DW6000 modem and .98m dish plus installation), and now I have to pay them $129.99 monthly ...and yet a v90 blows me away? What can I say??????? Egah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cheers! Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/1365-people-pc-accelerated/#findComment-15739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcin541 Posted January 10, 2005 CID Share Posted January 10, 2005 No way no how you are getting 1.9mbps on a damn 56k. No way, never, ever. It must be cached or something. :huh: Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/1365-people-pc-accelerated/#findComment-15741 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MICROWAVE Posted January 10, 2005 CID Share Posted January 10, 2005 But I agree something is wrong with this picture.... This has been around for some time I'm just not convinced that the speed posted is accurate.....but I may be wrong.... if this is what was used I'm wondering if it somehow gave incorrect data to and from TestMy...

Marcin541 Posted January 10, 2005 CID Share Posted January 10, 2005 Ok, maybe you did get that type of speed on this speed test, but that is because (like has been said) it was cached or something. When you actually download an MP3 or Video clip, youll get the typlical 3-5kbps speed, not 234kbps, since it isnt cached.

VanBuren Posted January 10, 2005 CID Share Posted January 10, 2005 my vote goes for some sort of compression tools, even tho the testfiles is maximal compressed ive seen one guy using a program and got 15 Mbps scores on a 1.5 Mbps dsl .....
