[ale] OT: How fast is your connection, and how much do you pay?

[Adrin]

Well,   You know it depends on who you are testing your
connection with. You to ISP , You to some other, etc....

I just used  www.dslreports.com   and this is what I got

Test running..........
** Speed 1134(down)/211(up) kbps **
(At least 22 times faster than a 56k modem)
Logged result.
Finish.

Not bad for going through a 166mhz  Linux box, before I even
get to the DSL modem.  I think.

I am paying $40/month for CharterComm cable ($30 for service
and $10 for
modem rental).  I get 65-95 kbps downstream at night, 35-50
kbps during the
day.  Upstream sucks.  It used to randomly drop every few
hours, then one
weekend it got really slow, followed by ten days of
downtime.  They finally
brought me a new modem and it hasn't dropped me since.
