    Not sure what connection we have at work, but the other day I was getting down load speeds in excess of 200K per second :omg:. I watched a 20Mb file download like a 20kb file would at home. I was gob smacked. --- Peter M

            Sadly I only get 60kb/sec on my Cable, my ISP has a low cap on the modems. :(( "We will thrive in the new environment, leaping across space and time, everywhere and nowhere, like air or radiation, redundant, self-replicating, and always evolving." -unspecified individual

                Than sounds like a 2Mbit connection. At home I have a 2Mbit ADSL where I often see download-speeds at 220K :) The fastes I have ever tried to download was at an office I was visiting, we needed Win2k SP3, so we downloaded it directly from MS. 8.5MB per second :eek: - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

                  Must be nice. We have a T-1 at work. Outside the core hours of 9:00 to 3:00, you can usually get ~100K/second (yes, the IS guys limit our bandwidth :mad: ). During the core hours, when all the Marketing weasels run their stock-ticker-in-the-tray and auto-pr0n-downloader gizmos, it falls to under 20K/second. I once downloaded a 1.8_G_ file from MSDN; it took about 30 hours.

                    I'm normally on 128K, so 600K makes a huge difference.

                      The best I have seen was at University. The University's directly connected to the backbone, so downloads flew. :eek:
