ed monahan Prowler Junkie Posts: 33595 From: Cincinnati, OH Registered: JUL 2000	posted 10-15-2003 11:06 PM 1.7 megabits per second. Is that fast? Compared to what? I seriously do not know what is considered fast on this type of test.

Compared to what? I seriously do not know what is considered fast on this type of test. Compared to most . . . . your speed is AWESOME! We have a wireless connection that is 256K and the test is showing about 200 on average. Of course, speed is determined by how much you are willing to pay for your connection. If you are paying $20 a month and getting that speed (1.7M) that really is awesome, but if paying hundreds of dollars per month, which is possible, then you are getting what you pay for. ------------------ Current mods: Mopar dual exhaust & front mudflaps; MacMotorsports Air Intake; Real Rod Air Patrol; Graphics by Balistek Designs; ($8) Chrome grille; Chrome tire valve-stem covers; Painted rear bumper lettering; Prowler Pro Gears; Synthetic Oil; Raybestos Ceramic Brake Pads; TGF Door Panel Inserts & Headrest Covers; SheepskinExpress Sheepskin Seatcovers; Grille Light; Pinstriping by Bo Boring; Painted Valve Cover; Window Tinting; Windshield Visor Banner; Front Bumper Removal / Relocation of Front Turn Signal Lights; Real Rod Transmission Cooler Cover, Sill and Carper Covers, Aero Front Covers and Roadster Rear Pan, rear bumpers removed; rear mudflaps; painted calipers; Prowler Products by Gary Drilled Rotors, front and rear; Painted tach; and Jay's Aluminum Billet Center Caps w/shimmers, Chrome Lugnuts and Chrome Radio Bezel Shimmer.

Prowlin Doc Prowler Junkie Posts: 190 From: Encino, CA Registered: APR 2001	posted 10-16-2003 10:54 AM Thanks guys. I am at 1.2 megabit and 152.2 kilobytes (think the 152.2 is important for web surfing but not sure). I have dsl here at work. The reason I wanted to test is b/c it just seems a lot faster lately. thanks bob

ed monahan Prowler Junkie Posts: 33595 From: Cincinnati, OH Registered: JUL 2000	posted 10-16-2003 10:55 PM Norm and/or Pat, I have cable and it is either $45 or $49 a month but I am getting it half price for 6 months since I switched addresses and I am a NEW subscriber. I didn't follow their logic but accepted the 50 % reduction. I have had the cable well over a year prior to the recent move.

ed monahan Prowler Junkie Posts: 33595 From: Cincinnati, OH Registered: JUL 2000	posted 01-10-2004 12:42 AM I just tried this again and it was 2.8 megabits a second. I thought my computer response was slower than before. They have been working on the cable out of the street this week, finally.

butchcee Prowler Junkie Posts: 7476 From: Lake Ariel, Pa. Registered: SEP 2000	posted 01-10-2004 01:32 AM It's what kept me satisfied with this old 500 meg machine for the last 5 years. I'm not a puter expert, but download might be faster with the newer machine that I hope gets mailed soon! Are ya listening KidRock?? I'm chomping at the bit here.

Gray Ghost, you need to get a satellite internet connection. Ordered DSL last week. Trying to get it installed Mon. or Tues. Come on down and we will run on down to Lake of the Ozarks and try to hook up with some of the guys down there. Weather looks like it is starting to break soon. 60's and 70's starting Tues or Wed.
