Alright, I've been having some really bad performance from my internet, so I went and did a test.
Results are as shown:


So yeah, poor online gameplay ahoy! What's your speed?

There are so many versions of this topic its unreal, I may yet be bothered to merge them. For now, at work (multi-million pound business) this is the speed they run on....

Hey, after seeing your results, I don't think my internet is that bad anymore 

(For some reason, speedtest always gives me an incorrect ping, 56 would be my ping when I connect to France...

As far as I remember, the last one we had was the worst ISP transforming into a speed comparison. Fiber optics for whatever reason are available anywhere but my residential area. I've been kicked countless times by Punkbuster for packet loss or simply disconnected, so my attempts at playing Battlefield Bad Company 2 online have been a disaster.

My internet has been pretty slow recently to say the least. This is what I've lived off for the last couple of months.


I'm almost 100% sure it's a problem with the router (internet is theoretically rated at 24mbps), not the foggiest what it could be though.

Errr, complain to your ISP? Whenever my connection speed drops under 100 kbps, I just call them and start yelling at them, gets it fixed instantly

Also, some routers are not very heavy duty, when you use them too much their performance decreases drastically (Well, the Sagem F@st 2604 does that for sure, anyway)

I should really get this for my work line using the academic hispeed network. Regularly get transfers in the tens of megabytes (NOT bits) a second.

For my home line but I'd be better if I wasn't doing this at peak time and using an extension within the property. In theory this line might hit 12 (had the engineer round recently).

my first guess is that it's a joke.
