I'm in central London... I get a shitty 17.5mb down/2mb up and that's the fastest you can get >:( [IMG]http://speedtest.net/result/2447014650.png[/IMG]
In my old house I got 135 kb/s and then I had to move in with my grandparents and I thought "What will their internet be? Even if they have internet..." Then it was 2 mbps and fucking flipped out

So this is a speedtest thread now? I might as well post mine [IMG]http://www.speedtest.net/result/2509976062.png[/IMG]
Living in Student apartments is great. For $0 a month I get 100 mbit connection. I still pay quite a lot of rent but at least the internet is "free". Still, awesome that these guys managed to do it themselves for a fraction of the cost.
Holy fuck, that's over ten times faster than my work which is a University supplied from the JANET education network [IMG]http://www.speedtest.net/result/2510000433.png[/IMG] at the main campus it's about double and at home I get about 30meg with like 4meg upload with Virgin. This is a great example of an effective not-for-profit co-operative model

Because people are posting their's [IMG]http://www.speedtest.net/result/2510137171.png[/IMG] This isn't that bad although I wish I had a higher download quota, mine is 150GB. It does the job well, although expensive at $90 per month.
Since the switch, I've been getting slower internet even though Plusnet says it's basically the same one. They're throttling my force9 connection. Bastards.
