Not had much luck with the Flash based testers ??? (eg speedtest.net) so having to use other sites to test speed, sadly none give a sig apart from this one.

Paying £20pm for 9ths, then £30 thereafter iirc for above speeds.
Rock solid, 24/7.
9.6MB/s up and 2.4MB/s down throughput.

Been having some issues with the wife's laptop and new connection speed. Decided tonight to run the connection test and came up with this.



That's on a 50/25 connection.... Her ping is a bit higher than mine....I'm guessing due to wireless-G

LTE, unlimited but speed capped to 50 Mbit, costs 19,99 €/month. Almost makes me want to pay a bit more for 100 Mbit.



Replaces our ADSL. Redid the test and got 44 Mbit for upload.

It's kinda funny how wireless connection gives really nice speed nowadays, ping is even ping is acceptable without bad jitter and upload speeds are awesome. And it's cheap too compared to wired alternatives!


(artificial speed cap @ 50Mbit, can't get it all for 19,90 €/month )

250 down, 15 up, 1TB bandwidth. $115 a month (before tax) but it's worth it.

Downloading games on Steam takes minutes, torrents go stupid fast and I can leave them seeding afterwards at a good speed without worrying about choking my connection. I love it.

My previous connection was DSL, 15 down, 1 up. Never going back.

Doesn't sound that good value wise. 350 Mbit down and 20 Mbit up connections (obviously without any caps) go here for 70,47 €/kk (including 24% VAT).

Looking at some of these connections, especially the full duplex ones, I'm very jealous.

The internet situation in Canada is brutal.

28/1 for ~$70 a month. Which compared to what I used to be paying isn't too bad, but the upload speed kills me. Can't even upload my music collection to Google Music (would probably take weeks). I think the most upload you can currently get from the Big 3 is 2mbit.

I didn't think Teksavvy was that expensive.

With Acanaca 28/1 I pay $45 a month unlimited.

For North America it's not bad. Our internet situation is a bit different because Canada and the USA are so large. European countries are small.

I'm in Canada. It's not that bad unless you live in a rural location, really.

This is in Canada too so It's not all doom and gloom plus I have unlimited downloading. 75.00CAD/mo Yes, Rogers has unlimited for an extra 10.00CAD/mo.

4G hotspot from Clear. I get almost double the speed I pay for, but probably because I live down the street from a Clearwire tower...
I've read about them throttling peoples speed often, but I've had a constant 8-10mb since I got it. Again, probably because I live so close to a tower.
