Wow, what kind of pipe do you have? I got 6765 up, 8953 down with 11ms ping.

We have a switched 10 Mb fiber connection to our ISP, but we run all web access through a proxy, so I wouldn't be surprised if the extra overhead from the proxy is what is taking the edge off of the speed.

I'm switching from cable to dsl at home tonight, so I can probably post some interesting numbers comparing their speeds tonight.
At work:



At home, it's about double that (Comcast "Burst").

My cable modem at home (which is also my office - I work from home) ... $44.90/month.



I don't have their TV service, but you just can't beat Cablevision's Optimum Online for speed ....

Mine, but since it's cable speeds vary.

when I choose a server that is not in the same city as where I work, my speeds drop down to the normal levels

Download 11,401 Kb/s (From Idaho Falls, ID)
Upload 5,022 Kb/s (To Idaho Falls, ID)

so location of server that you are connecting to does make a huge difference
Just for the heck of it I tested my 768 kilobit DSL with Hamilton Bermuda.



I usually get about 690 kilobits with various net speed tests but this path really worked well tonight.

Might be a bit better if you weren't using a server in Bermuda. :D
