mbrainerd Posted January 16, 2005 CID Share Posted January 16, 2005 This is the speed test site my provider has me go to. http:// speed.gtec.com their thermometer only goes to 3 megs. Someone with a fast connection go there and see if you can burst the thermometer. The funny thing is when I go there I get slower speeds, it will not let me do the bandwidth test. S/thing new for everyone to try. And get a laugh. Post your results1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanBuren Posted January 16, 2005 CID Share Posted January 16, 2005 yea thats not very accurate, the ppl that setup a test like that, just want to show their customers how good speed they have, in the reallity alot of the speed is burst ... quote " download size in thousands of bytes: 100 " for me across the pond need around 10 MB to get a accurate reading VanBuren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
