Yay, I got home from work today to find the virgin media man setting up our new network.

I AM NO LONGER TIED DOWN WITH AOL! (and their 1-3Mb/s broadband)

This blog is not short, most of the content is just not written in it. (Modit: Noted.)

edit from the future

this is now, same package :(

less than 1% of what it is supposed to be, and it has been like this for a week so far

Be glad, Josea! It's still better than the majority of Venezuela! :P

If those are in bytes and not bits then you have faster upload speeds than my connection at home though. 15mbps down and 0.5mbps up….. which is like 2MB/s down and 60KB/s up.

Correction: It's slower than the majority of Venezuela.

Oh. Fuck. I read that as faster than 55% since that's what all the others said. Oh well. Only 5% below average!

Wait a sec… Isn't your upload usually way smaller than your download? lol

Rob 12 years, 10 months ago

Yeah. On my island it was a fucking 30:1 ratio. It made seeding a bitch.

I wish I could say it was consistent though. Sometimes it's as slow as dialup.

Man I miss good up. >20 down and 7 up on Comcast, Norcal.

I am disappointed by the WIFI speeds in this building at my university.

It was a bit faster before (10Mb/s) but they throttled it, I do believe.

I have about 19Mb/s at home.
