just upgrated to 1.5mbits
what is your connection speed?
post yours here
just interested to know what most people here have

according to http://www.speedtest.net/global.php?...ry=1®ion=48
US avarage speed is more than 12mbits
that is very fast 1.5mbyte not bit -
Down is 4953 kb/s on the average and 427 kb/s up.

Just for the fun of it...
Themonk, the US average is not 12mbits as you have indicated because that would be suggesting most everyone has a fiber connection.
"A megabit is a unit of information or computer storage, abbreviated Mbit (or Mb)."
"1 megabit = 10(to the power of 6) = 1,000,000 bits which is equal to 125,000 bytes or 125 kilobytes." Taken from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabit
So 12 megabits would equal 125 kilobytes x 12 = 1,500 kilobytes
"North America's average is 4452 kb/s" taken from: http://www.speedtest.net/

How they invented the speeds
T1 and up is the terminology for digital, two-way transmission of voice, data, or video over a single highspeed circuit. The transmission rate is based on the bandwidth for one voice channel in digital form. This channel is called DS-0 and consists of 64 kbps of bandwidth.
By Time Division Multiplexing 24 DS-0 channels, T1 is formed. But there is more. To separate the different channels a framing bit is used. For framing 8000 bps are used.
T1 gives you 24 analog voice channels plus the framing rate. This makes the T1 speed: 24 x 64000 + 8000 = 1.544 Mbps. For the other T-versions an equal equasion is used ending everything up to the specs given in the table below.
Carrier Signal Level # of T1 signals # of Voice Channels Speed
T1 DS-1 1 24 1544 kbps
T1c DS-1c 2 48 3152 kbps
T2 DS-2 4 96 6312 kbps
T3 DS-3 28 672 44736 kbps
T4 DS-4 168 4032 274760 kbps

all i know is to get the real speed u need to devide it by 8Themonk, the US average is not 12mbits as you have indicated because that would be suggesting most everyone has a fiber connection.

.
so 1.5mbit =187kbytes per second in download speed (that is the max speed )
average speed there (in speedtest.net) in newyork is 12000kbits
that is FU$CKING A LOTComment

100/10 Mbit/s right now, could upgrade to 1000/100 Mbit/s but it's not worth it and I don't need faster.Comment

30Mbps down, 5Mbps upComment
