816 kbps ... SBC Yahoo DSL.


[Edit] I'm on a wireless connection ... the 'home portal' sits in the den, right under my room (about 14-15 feet away.) I'm also connected at 11.0 mbps [/edit]

Wasn't there a thread something like this awhile ago?

5440 Kbps - You

It's kind of wowing me right now too, its only a Cox cable connection. Along with a router and a 130+ ft cable going from my main house, this connection is decent, and CNET might be deceiving me, but the results seem consistent.

Infinity Kbps - You

This is what happens if you hit the back button, let it show you the new speed, and do it again.

Make sure you don't hit the back button to do a second test!

btw, I had a 1000 or so kb connection at school with a T1.

This is my high school connection. Which is pretty sad seeing as it is supposed to be a T1 connection.

2463.8 kbps

Cable connection (RoadRunner). 50ft of cable between me and my router, 3 other computers on the network (don't know what they were doing with activity), Apache installed and available to the outside world, so that may have had some influence. But not bad.

Lower than I would have thought.
This is with 6' cable going to my router and then 6' of cable to the cable modem. I didn't test this with my wireless network and no other computers were on when I did this. I should also mention the cable line to the modem comes off a 5 way splitter in the garage.
