Slow Internet Connection

Looks good to me from here (?) ... any specific site/server that you have trouble accessing or just EVERYTHING?

 

I would suggest you try out the speed test at This site to see what you get. It may be a simple mis-configuration problem? (like a home router/gateway or just PC misconfiguration) ... in any case, there are ways to find out where exactly the problem is if you are interested.

Details

 

Your raw speed was 1144134.08 bits per second which is the same as:

 

Communications

 

1.1 megabits per second

How communication devices are rated. Kilo means 1,000 and mega means 1,000,000. Examples include 56k modem and 10Mbit Ethernet

 

Storage

 

139.7 kilobytes per second

The way data is measured on your hard drive and how file sharing and FTP programs measure transfer speeds. Kilo is 1,024 and mega is 1,048,576.

 

1MB file download

 

7.3 seconds

The time it would take you to download a 1 megabyte file at this speed.

 

Rating

 

Compared to all connection types worldwide, yours is fantastic

I have cable connection. There was circuit problem with WorldCom yesterday, which had affected the entire Internet network, yesterday, as advertised. Seems that it has not affected West cost.

 

Must be Khodja's first step to have the South east sunk under the ocean...

Azat, I have noticed some really crazy things with Earthlink ... I have earthlink DSL at home. Most of the time, my packets to UCLA go to passadena->denver->seatle->gay area->silicon valley and then back down to LA. I don't know why that is.

 

Also, at least a few days during the month, the packets sometimes decide to do the around the country trip! I posted this a while back ... packets going all the way to georgia or virginia and then coming back to LA!!! It's really rediculous. But I just don't have the time to call them and start bitching
