Dont believe wat company says.

Post by KEN »

I was having a very slow internet so i decided to get a new connection and got a 2.4mb/s internet but after i got it,i saw its download speed hardly went beyond 10kb/s lol so i complained about them and told that they fooled me telling the wrong speed.....then they gave me a faster internet just to get rid of my complain but after 2 days they disconnected my connection =O
then i again complained and now just half hour back got my internet back after 5 days lol
liers and still my internet not get the speed that i was promised to get.

this is why i use cracked wireless, can't complain, because its free + untraceable. fastest cracked ive had was like 15mbit. i got 1.4mb/s from torrent.
as about your 10kb/s, im more than sure it was your own error, if your computer is full of shit, then it never reaches the speed.
simply go to your router/modem settings and look for QoS (quality of service). usually it is listed under QoS, but not always, however on 99% of cases router/modem has some kind of a page that tells you the actual speed, the speed that your ISP have provided you.

but title is 100% correct, companys ALWAYS lie. like the 20mbit connection in UK. they limit it to like 4mbit during certain time, which is most of the day, thats just lame. 4mbit is 500kb/s. on this speed you would get 1gb in about 35 - 40 mins. so if you leave something to download for night, it is more than enought already. point of that 20mbit is to get what you want in matter of seconds, but it's no use if you only get to use it after like 20.00 or if it has download limits.

its not only about ISP, all companys lie, they fake their own customers and such.

We pay for 'up to 16 mbit', which is what we get pretty much all the time

I currently get 12.1 mbit, but that's because the wire I use is 25 meters long, while im only about 8 meters away. If i'd use a shorter cable i'd get about 14-14.5mbit

yes good point, long cable will decrease your speed. when i had 12mbit, max speed i got was 1.1mb/s, but it should have been 1.5mb/s
you never get what they say, because of those losses, but it indeed should be faster, im sure it is something else than they lieing about speed. check your modem/router and see what it says.

Currently 12,114 mbit down.

connected are:
2 laptops(wireless)
sisters desktop(wireless)
my desktop(cable @ 25meters)

We did a test with an old cable of 3 meter and I got 14,525 mbit then, so thats 2.4 mbit more then I get now(with 25 meter cable).

Not bad seeing as we pay for 'up to 16mbit', they could cap us at 4mbit if they wanted to and still give what they promised ^^)

Weird thing yesterday tho, was downloading a game with torrents, and for some reason I was getting 3.7 mb per seconds! that would mean I had rougly 30mbit connection! but when I checked experia box I was getting 12.5 mbit

now you are talking nonsense already. stop saying things you have no idea about.
wtf is 2.4mb/s browsing ? you DO realize that 2.4mb/s is 19mbit ?! right ?
how exactly you measure browsing ? even with 100kb/s you get nearly instant page loading, page load times are not limited by connection speed, but by latency and your browser.
