How fast is your internet?

Mine is pretty slow because I share with 3~4 other people. I can surf the web, watch low quality videos, but when it comes to online gaming I will lag or downloading large stuff I only get like 1 MB per/s

[quote=piana]@ecyz: But why everyone use all these "Bits" instead of "Bytes"?
Isn't it simpler to say your actual download speed or people just like higher numbers?[/quote]

I've always wondered this too. Why is the standard for speed in bits when all actual downloads are in bytes?
At my university I get this:

In my dorm, it gets up to 200 mbps in certain parts of campus and i haven't tested with an ethernet cable yet.

I don't have fast internet. Should be at 16 Mbps.
Used to be 3 Mbps a while ago. That was great. It was like 0.3 MB/s lol.

i used to get a crazy speed, past the advertised one (xfinity blast) but now it's like 90 something because we switched accounts. who knew the rented and combined modem/router was actually good? o___o
still good tho i mean it's reliable bc ethernet and we are paying way less with our own modem and router. for ppl using wifi it was devastating lol

[quote=piana]I get 500kbps for actual download speed which is...bad.
Do you guys really download stuffs at 100mbps speed?
Like 1gb file only take you 10 seconds to complete?[/quote]
No, my download speeds tend to be low-ish. Unless I'm downloading from like, Google or Microsoft, then I usually never break 10 mb/s.

I don't know why it's so slow, cause my dad has been getting 30mbps ever since we got Comcast (years and years ago). But I used to get about 12mbps with ethernet, and now I'm on WiFi on my laptop, about 10 feet away from the router (through a wall), and I only get 5mbps.

~50ish Mbps download, ~10Mbps upload.

It's not terrible, but it's not exactly stream material either.
