Decided to take 3 tests to get a general idea. *laughs*
Supposed to be 1mb DL - 1mb UL BUT it really clocks in at 512-800+ kbs
Yes I am uncapped and paying +-$170 a month for it
BTW Internet in SA Is dominated by one company of which the government owns more then 50% so uncapped is really a new idea over here and is QUITE SLOW and buggy, not to mention the help lines... oops I meant to say HELL LINES. XP
i have a enhanced GPRS connection(EDGE). It's damn slow (around 6-10KBps download) but atleast I can use it anywhere and anytime from my phone.
PS: 6-10KBps= 48-80kbps... don't get confused..
yeah i know... but the providers here in India have not started 3g rollout yet. I am using a nokia 6151.. it supports edge and 3g.
PS: I mean.. I use my phone as a modem to connect to the internet. I am on my computer now! Though I can use internet from my phone too..
Always the case, never skrewed us over enough that they have to go and monopolize things. In my country only the one network has 3g and HSDPA, they allow the other networks to piggie back on it. Due to this, all the networks offer around the same rates and there is no competative pricing.
My ISP provides me with a 512kbps though it goes much slower then that - sometimes as 100kbps! Is that normal? I didnt even know it was possible to have an internet connection over 50mbps!
2Mbps down, I have no idea about upload.
I've never had an upload speed above 30kb/s, and when that happens it's as if my line is at full capacity, since downloads go VERY slow then.
Quite annoying if you download a lot of torrents, like I do.
my internet is connected to the local are network in london! Yes the 2GBPS.
my downloads are usually around 60-400mbps and my uploads can go up to 700Mbs+. i tend not to upload too much as it sometimes slows down the network for other people!
