ADSL Speed and Setup

[Beefy]

like i said, it's rough. :) I'm on 512, and I can get 56k downloads... gives people an idea though.

hmm man one good thing about cold canada is internet is failry cheap and fast i mean i pay $46cdn. for unlimited cable and i can see speeds of 1200kb/s(plus) off sites like 3dgames.com, M$, cnet there are a few others, to any game servers in the same province my ping does not go over 15ms. The most i have ever seen was i was watching a DVD streamed LIVE form a city about 300km away that was nice but it was test like conditions. GL

cause if 200 is..hmm..i dunno, 1500/256..for 200.zouch

3GB, yeah right man!

ok.
put it this way. my parents pay for it.
most of the time u get **** speeds on KaZaA anyways, so i cant download that much.
anyway, i would think that for the extra speed, getting it for $5 less a month is ok

Why didn't they take up the free upgrade to the 5GB plan? :confused:

[The__tweaker]

get optus cable.
thats what i have.
i have the 3 gig plan, and have never used it up.
i download movies, mp3s, software (all legal of course)
and its faster too, i get like upto 100kb/s on kazaa.
i get like 300 kb/s from websites with good servers and low usage.
i am very happy.
oh yeah, its a month.

btw downloading games also known as "warez" is not legal so don't do that. Or at least don't talk about it here on the forum..

if i can cross my d/l limit of 1.5 GB regularly on an almost non-exisiting 64K connection then i can just guess what people might do with their 1.5Mbits or more connection and hey i don't download porn :laugh:

[The__tweaker]

lol yeah but with fast connections over 2 mbit it's often pretty hard to cross the limit, they usually block ya.. Be careful..

ya know, most things can be considered bogus if not handled correctly..

:eek: why not simply charge the extra data transfer rather than blocking?
thats pretty insane :scream:
