that's fast enough to communicate with us.

Cohen Fios is not faster than all cable companies. For instance, the entire nassau and suffolk county and parts of manhattan and brooklyn are serviced by cablevision which is OptimumOnline. They offer 30/5 connections which are up their with fios. Fiber is not always better.

Not referring to FIOS, FIOS isn't the only fiber optics provider. I'm talking about a fiber connection looped to my work office. We are at OC3 connection which is full 100 mbps (about 3000 dollars a month).

These speeds are necessary because I run web servers/sell servers/colocation which I need to partition the space for clients and active streaming for our clients websites. There is plenty left over for me however :-D

[jdl4ever]

Correction: I actually get a maximum of 3.15mb/sec when I run the test on the main computer, before I checked in on my laptop using wireless.  I have roadrunner 5000/384.

Ok that makes sense cause I dont find fios to be a miracle product.

I don't think that makes any difference.
Fast internet is not absolutely necessary for political activity.

[DownwithIslam]

I am supposed to get 1.5mb/sec but in my actual tests I get 1.1 mb/sec.  No complaints here as I can download an mp3 song in 4 seconds.

Jdl4ever, your connection is not fast and you cant share that type of speed with 15 people believe me. Even if all of them are merely browsing the web, it prob wouldn't work well at all. If even one person is running torrents or emule, nobody would even be able to browse the web. I though you had the 10mb/512 package which is more dough.

Yeah I was about to say, FIOS well...FIOS is limited to the speed Verizon allows it's users to download, Fiber is just what they chose to allow their consumers to connect to their datacenter.

Also you will only download as fast as other webservers will allow you, Torrent is a great way to test your download speed with a bunch of seeders and small ammount of leechers.

http://reviews.cnet.com/7004-7254_7-0.html  List the actual speed you get and not the theoretical maximum that the company claims to give you.  I actually get a maximum of 3.15mb/sec when I run the test on the main computer, before I checked in on my laptop using wireless.  I rechecked the documentation and I am supposed to get 5000/384 as per the company but in reality I don't get that at least not at this time of day.

Actually your getting exactly what the company is selling you, the company is advertising in bits. When you download a file, you are downloading in bytes. There are 8 bytes in a bit. Divide the total number of bits by 8. For example if your company says they offer a 10mbps connection, do 10000 divided by 8 and that will tell you the number of bytes you get.

Actually JDL4EVER, Time warner recently changed their speed brackets so I think you are mistaken about your speed. 1.5mbit, 10mbit are all that are currently offered. Look at this link and scroll down to where they display their internet pricing. This should make it clear.

And jdl4ever, that Cnet test is absolutely inaccurate. Try speedtest.net for the right reading.
Again check out the link and tell me what you have.

As per that chart I have road runner standard 10mb/512kb at $44.95/month.  But what I don't get is that when I test the connection I get 3.15 mb/sec.

I get 5.5 to 5.65/ sec and I have RR

Yirmiyahu, what part of Nyc do you live in. I was under the impression that fios wasn't available much around here.

[DownwithIslam]

Jdl4ever, try to unplug the power from your cable modem and then plug it back in. Also if you are using a router, even if its plugged directly to the ethernet ports, crappy ones still slow down speeds. D-link routers are very good in general. I have had bad experiences with netgear. I am replacing my old dlink with a linksys now so I will see how it works. I got a great deal on ebay so no harm even if it sucks.
