Re: dOWNLOAD SPEED...

Quick math lesson!

When companies advertise 5MB up and down or 56KBs they are almost always talking about megabits and kilobits. These are not the same as Megabytes and Kilobytes. To get your rate in megabytes or kilobytes you divide the bits by 8. Same thing for servers, so if they advertise a 100MB server you divide 100 by 8 and get 12.5 Megabytes. So 56K = 7KB/s

You could try a download manager. I don't know how much of an increse you would get if at all but that way it wont drop the download.

Re: Internet Speeeed

Pfft, my speed would blow you all away. </bragging>

Anyways, anythign over 1 mbps is a nice speed.. It sure beats dial up. If you are downloading a lot of large files that is kinda slow. Just for web browsing and all that it's an ok speed.

Use the "prt sc" button on your keyboard and then just go into something like mspaint and go to edit -> paste

then just edit out the info you want
