Mine came up to 1213.2KBits and 151.7KBytes on my DSL. Almost T1 speed!

Interesting... on the PC I got 331k just a hair faster than ISDN. On the Mac sitting right next to it I got 33707.9k topping off the chart.

Both are wired on the same router on the same DSL line.

Neat though.

My Road Runner subnet clocked out at 5120 kbits (640 Kbytes), while my DSL subnet clocked out at only 702 kbits (88 Kbytes.) My DSL has a permanent IP address available much cheaper than what TimeWarner wants (needed for serving my weather web site), yet I can't resist those blazingly fast RR download speeds.

Mine is now clocking at "4M 5563.3Kbits 695.4KBytes ." This is on a Comcast cable modem service. It has clocked as fast as 6M.

My optimum cable modem at home clocked in the "10M & up" category...and that was through wireless. I would be very curious to see how fast it would be hard-wired.

Here at work, though...40.3 Kbytes. Quite sluggish, by comparison.

5287.5 Kbits per second or 5.1 Megs a second.

Don't go confusing your bits and bytes.

5287.5 kilobits = 660.9375 kilobytes = .64544677734375 megabytes

Just tested again from home....Optimum Cable on my PowerMac G4 Cube: 157894.7 KBits 19736.8 Kbytes...that's 19.274MB...pretty damn fast, I'd say!!!
