Looks like they've upgraded their site again. Pretty easy to use, nowadays. Here's my latest result:



I seem to get the fastest results with the Chicago and the Atlanta servers. Worst one I got was Madrid, Spain, at only about 1mbps download and 347kbps upload.

I was wondering if Insight has upgraded my account to the 10mbps, like they were supposed to. Guess the results from Chicago pretty much confirm it. Though, my average after testing a lot of different servers around the country is around 7.9mbps, so that's still not too shabby for an average.

In their percentages, I'm at 93% faster than all global connections tested, and 88% faster than USA connections.

I want to see someone's results that has the newer Fiber connections. That's coming to Louisville in the near future, and I want to see if it'll really be worth the switch.

I don't know what we have exactly, but my entire campus of 15,000 students has Wifi so it must be fairly powerful

At home though Hawk we have comcast cable internet, so I am going to have dad run a test later to see what kind of speed I get at back in Chi-Town

Could be worse. At least the days of 14.4 modems are gone...well for most of us.

Mine in the thread starter is "basic" cable internet from Insight. $35 a month if you have cable TV with them as well...

Holy crap what kind of connection is that??

On another note, looks like the net is a little less crowded. I just pulled this from Chicago:

Alpine, I'm not positive, but I think it'd be faster to surf the web from a cell phone.

This is from my work:



Strange how the download speed is so slow, but the upload is pretty blazing. Compared to my house, anyways.

Dan,
You need to call Verizon, and complain (unless of course you only got the 5M package).
