Re: Looking for a big file on a fast server with good connection

I also have a 3 megaBIT/s rated download speed. The most I have ever seen coming into my computer (using the DU Meter History page) is about 550 kB/s. This is due to the speed the modem can actually process the data, and the conversion between bits and bytes. (ahh thats how they trick the unsuspecting customer...)
