Is there any way to improve my internet speeds? - Hardware & Software

[QUOTE=JJ Webby;28706133]Hey guys... [img_thumb]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1211194800.png[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] How can you live with that connection? :confused:

[QUOTE=VistaPOWA;28706141]How can you live with that connection? :confused:[/QUOTE] I can barely even stream on youtube...at 240p. BT seriously fucked up on it but I can never find the chance to call them or think of way without getting charged. I also believe it's just my house.

[QUOTE=JJ Webby;28706133]Hey guys... [img_thumb]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1211194800.png[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] I see your problem [img]http://img576.imageshack.us/img576/338/ss20110320110143.png[/img]

[img]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1211210584.png[/img] I'm happy with that, I used to have much slower connections...

How about you be happy with what you've got, fucker! :argh: [img]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1211218123.png[/img]

I was on dial up until 2009. I finally convinced my family to get high-speed and when we did I almost cried at how fast YouTube loaded. I used to have a 38 kb/s connection that I'd play Runescape/other browser games on. So much lag...

[QUOTE=superdinoman;28706007]Click the links under my name then come back. Also Comcast is utter trash, changing my plan without letting me know, over charging for retarded shit, throttling bandwidth for no reason. They are the best available in my area though and they have a low price compared to everyone else.[/QUOTE]You have serious issues if you are scared of someone looking for you within a 50mile radius. And read what I said. Depending on where you live it seems that others get great service as opposed to others who don't have any issues. So, that's just bad luck, on your end. I also just got home. So you lose. [img]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1212604149.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Smashman;28725128]:psyboom:[/QUOTE] [img]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1212704412.png[/img] The only downside is that the workers around this area tend to dig up the internet cables so there's downtime now and then.

How much do your parents pay for that?

So this is a post your internet speed thread?

[QUOTE=Giraffen93;28725701]Gigabit? That doesn't sound possible with 100mb. Also wat Grade [b]A[/b]?[/QUOTE] Slow upload compared to the download.

[img]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1214039158.png[/img] It's the best this house can support at the moment. Depressing.

[QUOTE=jaybuz;28725593]I asked my dad if we could switch to BE but he doesn't like the fair usage policy[/QUOTE] BE's FUP looks like any other ISP's FUP, what's wrong with it?

[QUOTE=jaybuz;28725699]I'm lucky to get 4Mb/s most days here in the UK[/QUOTE] [img]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1214629711.png[/img] :v: I think Virgin are releasing 100MB broadband soon.

Dang it I need an Ethernet cable to beat that. I mean the 80s and shit.

Look them up on the better business bureau. They're a horrible ISP.

I wish ISPs didn't lie.
