What is your internet provider?
 
Right now my provider is At&t and haven't had a lot of problems since my family has switched to wireless.

Out where I live the only options are Comcast or At&t

Yoshi648 August 8, 2010 03:46:10 PM

Cox Communications

Yes, there is. Buy a better plan. There's no real way for you to raise your download speed, that's all controlled by the provider.

Earlier this year Tiscali UK got merged into TalkTalk. (Who in a study in 2009 were found to have the slowest speed of major ISPs in Britain...)

Armed Floatzel August 28, 2010 06:36:11 AM

Right now, I'm using Sky internet; an internet provider you should never EVER sign up for.

They slow down the internet deliberately between 5:15 PM and 11:15 PM. I can't even watch youtube videos during that time.

We're breaking free of that provider in a few days because they're doing it deliberately and even TOLD us that they had a right to do it, despite the fact that we pay premium.

Shadow August 28, 2010 07:14:52 AM

I use an Internet Service Provider called Etisalat.

Also, my provider is AT&T.

Not that much actually. That company provides for everything in my country, from cell phone plans to cable. Since wre such a small country, it only has like 2 rivals. And they try to direct all the customers to their company, by offering large discounts for each service subscribed. My family has starhub cable, starhub internet, starhub telephone, starhub everything :O the more we get, the bigger the value. Monthly, it costs about 60ish Singapore dollars that's about US-$50 or UK Ł30

Ningamer October 6, 2010 08:37:07 AM

50 mbps speeds here cost just under Ł30... Our company offers 10 mbps, 20 mbps and 50 mbps, of which we have the first one. Still, it's more than enough to do what I want! Apart from when I'm uploading a Youtube video or something...

KingOfKYA October 7, 2010 11:19:45 AM

To put these speeds in perspective victoryroad and associated sites all have a 10mb up and down dedecated line. Thats just whats guaranteed we dont know how fast it can really go.

I tested at my school today, while there was heavy strain on the server (First five minutes of the first lesson) and I managed to get a download speed peaking at 32 MB/S and an upload of around 15 MB/S. Unfortunately my teacher made me close it before I could get a link or anything, so I don't know our ISP.

Your download speed is pretty good, however you upload (compared to your download) is ehh, however just looking at your upload is not all that bad at all.

What I mean is that there is such a vast difference in your Download vs Upload. Both are faster than mine.

I've been having internet troubles:

We're supposed to be getting 20Mb/S broadband. A test from a few days ago shows that we're getting 1/100 of that. Upload is better than usual though:
http://www.speedtest.net/result/1419689405.png

A test a few hours later shows a slight improvement in download speed, but there was no hope left for our upload or ping:
http://www.speedtest.net/result/1420259299.png

And then, after almost two days of no internet and minutes of being on hold to Virgin Media, we get a result!
