Default What are your download/upload speeds...

Where you live. Living in America, it's horrible. I was wondering if it was any better where you guys lived. We pay like $40USD/month for 5 down, and we still only get about 2 down.

Please do tell your speeds.

I've got 8mbit down, 1mbit up for 35 euro/month including Usenet payserver. I only get about 6mbit of that speed though because I live too far from the central phone thingy. In the Netherlands ofcourse

i am in san francisco, ca in merka, and i have the comcast cable gamers delight dealio. i get 8Mb down (though usually more like 10!), but unfortunately only get about 750k up (never ever more). this costs me about $50 merkin a month plus i have to get their cheesy cable t.v. which i already upgraded like an ass (those bastards sucked me in with comedy central for the daily show (one of the most worthwhile shows on in my opinion)).

I've got 2MB down, 1MB up, I think. Although we're supposed to be getting 8MB download soon if our line gets upgraded as planned.

amjadabbas wins though, because he gets to live in Toronto, possibly my favourite city in the world

I think Studley meant 2Mb/sec instead of 2MB

On the other hand, we've been having ADSL2+ for a while already in the Netherlands, offering 20Mbps like Messiah mentioned. Don't think you're going to find any faster than that without resorting to glass fibre

Not completely true... With the current modems it is, but somehow they're working on a ADSL2+ modem with 3mbit upload. It'll cost you a couple of mbit download, but who cares if now the most got 20mbit or so
