To my 20Mbit Virgin Media connection:

That's a pretty horrid upload speed tbh. I mean, over 17Mbps download, but only 700kbps upload? I only get 3mbps Download speed, but I have at least 600kbps upload speed.

We all did this about 12-18 months ago, there is a thread about it somewhere.

That is the same package I'm on but I'm closer to the server



Not great as I have several things runnning atm.

so are higher numbers better or worse?

The higher, the better. You should see Japan's connections.

is ping better low?

Aren't you all glad you don't live in Tasmania? (I can't think of another location where you have to go 600ks across an undersea cable just to get to the nearest server...)
TBH it's not terrible, just a slight annoyance from time to time. Particularly if two people try to use the connection at once.

I can't believe TMNut is actually decent. :o

There are still occasional DCs and also the fact that I can't use torrents at all. D:

Scopes is EPIC for an upload speed.

@Wiz, so true, so true

Except for the ping, of course

Hmmm...

It's a 6 mbps rated line, but my result isn't fairly accurate considering I'm on my brother's wireless network and due to overhead and interference, I get a slightly downgraded speed. But still far better than my old 1.5 mbps line.

holy crap scope, u could download a live animal...

Can download a CAR with a speed like that

Well I was able to download a 13GB file in 35 minutes once (will keep mum about its contents) and the speed peaked at about 8.9 MB/s (yes Bytes not bits)

Sometimes though some proxy doesn't allow me to fully exploit my massive upload speeds.
