Internet Speeds

Out of morbid curiosity, what range of up/down speeds do you guys work with, globally? Here in Brisbane, Australia, I've got decent download but comparatively terrible upload (due to severe ISP rate-limiting) http://i.imgur.com/rNF0q5A.png[^]

I'm at 40D/20U using CenturyLink DSL in Spokane WA. I could probably go faster if I wanted but the added expense isn't justifiable. The speed is enough, consistent and reliable. The downside with them is they block various TCP ports so it's a bit of a pain for me to run the servers I want on my internal network. Had to play some games to move my email server internal but finally got it working. At my old house in south eastern WA state I had Spectrum internet and got ~60D/30U and all TCP ports were wide open for me to do with as I pleased, plus in 3 years of using their service the IP address never changed. Guess I got a bit spoiled, unfortunately Spectrum doesn't offer service in Spokane. :(

Here at the office it is 367D / 745U [Speedtest.net by Ookla - My Results](http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/6415768527). First time my upload has ever been faster than download. These speeds are necessary because almost all our servers are on AWS. And still it isn't fast enough. I've got 100Mbit fiber at the house, but I haven't checked my speed there in a while.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

88 Mbps is more than decent. I usually have 25-30 Mbps and I can work from home, have one son gaming online with his 360, and 2 netflixes all running with no issues. :laugh: But your upload is pretty terrible. I get about 6 Mbps.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data. There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

at home i get about 10 down and .5 up (DSL)
I'm at 9 Mbps down and .6 Mbps up on DSL at a little after midnight and it decreases drastically during peak hours not to mention dropping out completely on a fairly regular basis. All of my friends are on cable and complain about the slowness of my internet when they're over, but the cable company pays the city I live in to keep the competition out (I really want FIOS), which angers me to the point I won't pay them for their services. So I pay more for slower and less reliable DSL...

168 Mbps down and 12 Mbps up with cable. (Paying for "up to" 100 Mbps.)

76Mbps down/20Mbps up. This is since fibre became available in our area last December (the best early Christmas present I've had!) - before that, it was 1.5Mbps down/1.5Mbps up... The only positive of the old speed is that I still marvel at how fast our fibre is...
Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p
