1mbit connection here, loving it, would love 2mbit if it had a faster upload speek than 30K/s, but even then, i would need a job or something.
512kb here..i want 2mb..or a fat satellite connection
I'm just on poor lil 512/256KB Eclipse adsl. It does what I need it to so i'm happy
Our school has a terrifyingly fast connection too. Thing is on the older computers, with 365MHz Celerons, ridiculously slow hard drives/memory, etc. Everything takes an hour to do. The downloads never seem to go above about 300Kb a sec.
Whereas on the new 2GHz Celeron WinXP machines, they can download at about 3MB/sec without breaking into a sweat.
I downloaded the demo of UT in under a minute, only to find out that running EXEs are blocked on those computers
We had a nice multiplayer LAN game of Doom95 on the old computers though

My 2mbit still working nicely, still havent had an opportunity to test unis download speed but i doubt its gonna make my jaw drop.
You can try NASA's Astronaut Photography of Earth FTP site... It contains some excellent photos of Earch from space and it is a very simple FTP site: over 6,400 photos in root directory, totalling over 24GB - and each is a gem!Originally posted by Nemeliza

I use 512k by at my uni house at the mo, upgrading to 1mb soon, but 2mb is more than I can afford at the moment. I don't think £50 is a bad price for it really though.
Who would that be? maybe i know himOriginally posted by ingouk
