Sovereign Posted January 29, 2005 CID Share Posted January 29, 2005 Ok heres the situation... My downloading speeds start out pretty good around 250kb/s, But then they dramatically fall down to 30kb/s. The files being downloading then remains around the 30kb/s. I have done many tests, on sites and so forth, and its says that my download rate is 33kb/s but i dont think that is right with DSL. Im not too sure but friends have told me that there DSL downloading speeds are higher and one of my friends got the same provider. I've ran many tests... Removed all spyware/adware, Removed all viruses, but still no luck . So im asking for some comments and answers, Do i have the right downloading speed if so please inform me. Is there something wrong with my bandwidth maybe? Any suggestions please reply asap. Thanks -Sovereign- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest helloimtim Posted January 29, 2005 CID Share Posted January 29, 2005 It sure looks wrong to me. I am on dsl and I run about 800 to 900 as compared to your 35. I would think dsl is pretty close to standard all over the world. Should expect about the same speed. You forsure picked the right web site. These guys will have you up and running in no time. My problems with my dsl ended up being inside wireing issues which i fixed. I can sure help you with that part. I used cat5 hardwired into the back of my phone jack and ran strait to my computer. Use caution doing anything with your wireing , make sure you know what your doing!! have a nice day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shug7272 Posted January 29, 2005 CID Share Posted January 29, 2005 Welcome to the site hope you like it. It sounds like to me what you are describing is the initial speed of download due to the cache while you are choosing where to save the file. Generally when you go to download a file it will pop up the window asking you where to place the file, all this time the OS is downloading the file. So once you choose where to save the file it brings up the speed screen and it notices all of the file that has already been downloaded and says wow Im downloading fast and shows you a really good speed but then it levels out. I think this is what you are describing. As far the DSL it should be faster than that. Next time you come by post your speed test results in the Make It Faster Section and let Van help you out.
