How much are you paying to get that much speed?

My cable provider has a 100mb plan that's like 100 bucks.

Unless that's some photoshop bullshit you're pulling. :lol

http://www.speedtest.net/result/5047161518.png (http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5047161518)

My speeds go from 50 to 59mb.

Only paying 5 dollars extra for the boost.

[ChumpDumper]

How much are you paying to get that much speed?I don't think he pays anything for that IIRC.

[The Reckoning]

it's probably company speed. with all the network drinking from that milkshake. i doubt he usually gets that.

comcast on my end sucks. i never get the speed i pay for because of the coax. it's my only provider though.

[ChumpDumper]

At 2am it's probably that fast.

[Reck]

I don't think he pays anything for that IIRC.

Yeah that's what I thought.

Those speeds aren't available to the every day user I would think. Company net sounds more fair.

[ChumpDumper]

Yeah that's what I thought.

Those speeds aren't available to the every day user I would think. Company net sounds more fair.Nope, it's their highest home speed in "select" markets like Austin and now San Antonio. It's not synchronous gigabit, but it's pretty good for coax.

[koriwhat]

I download at 13mb/s

do u guys download at work? or its all monitored?

[hehateme]

gigapower - san antonio northside

didn't do it internally on the network either to inflate the speeds similar to what resistanze did. If i did that, then it looks like this.

[Reck]

Post home internet speeds faggot.

[ChumpDumper]

lol you think everyone works the late shift to brag about their internets speeds?

Fast internet is actually available in a lot of homes.

[illusioNtEk]

How much are you paying to get that much speed?

Fortunately I don't pay anything but if I where it would be around 85 to 90



Unless that's some photoshop bullshit you're pulling. :lol


Nope, all legit as you can click on the image

[z0sa]

I know TWC is offerinv us 200mbps, but i was skeptical until this thread. Guess maybe it is legot after all.

[DMC]

Eventually it won't be a talking point. We'll have the speed we need to do what we want to do. I do already, but there's still that "better than yours" concept. It was the same with PCs for a long time where CPU speed was always the goal, now it's performance on certain platforms.

[The Reckoning]

my internet is fast enough when it's running at 30. if I need better response I just use an ethernet cable...iirc if you're a single user pulling 5 mb/sec and under 100 ping is plenty for anything you're doing unless you're downloading a shtitton of gb worth of data at a time.

[ChumpDumper]

I know TWC is offerinv us 200mbps, but i was skeptical until this thread. Guess maybe it is legot after all.It's real. To make sure you get the most out of it over wifi you need a really good AC router or one of TWC's newest modem/router combos.

[illusioNtEk]

It's real. To make sure you get the most out of it over wifi you need a really good AC router or one of TWC's newest modem/router combos.

That is correct. In order to achieve these new speeds you need a "Maxx Modem" which has 16 downsteam channels rather then the standard of 8. Customers who are in these MAXX areas should seek these newer modems.

[illusioNtEk]

Just ran another test during the middle of the day and here are the results.

Customers who are in these MAXX areas should seek these newer modems.And some models -- Ubee (personal experience) and Technicolor (similar specs) are better than others for wifi. It can be a pain to get the good stuff but it actually comes close to being worth the modem lease.

Not sure what 'do it internally' means. There's several ISPs in SF, of course the ping is low

Here's Time Warner server in LA:

time warner equipment is the worst.

[ChumpDumper]

time warner equipment is the worst.New stuff is pretty good in my experience. But I'm not a power user and YMMV.

[leemajors]

Getting the old Ubee Docsis 3.0 modem in bridge mode to use my own router was a nightmare tbh, and when i got my Motorola Surfboard they made it a bitch to even use it.

I think I :wow'd at your upload speed the last time, but shit I'll do it again.. I have 55/5 and the download is plenty, but streaming my movies on Plex off of my server PC is really showing the upload speed limitations when playing blu-ray quality files

It's funny because I was running my desktop rig off wifi at first and was getting 100/100 and I was THRILLED....it wasn't until I saw my phones and work laptop getting 200/200 on wifi I was like hold on a minute :lol

When I just used an ethernet cable I realized it was closer to 500/500 connection. Webpass is the shit, its hardwired into my building.

is the clown running fibre or cable?
if cable...why u still on docsis 3.0? shouldnt u or provider upgrading docsis 3.1 exceeding the limitations of 3.0

fibre to the house vs fibre to the node is a huge difference in speed man

[SpursforSix]

I bypass my Ethernet cable with my Beats audio wires and usually can expect the best sounding internet possible.

I mean internal to the network and location. It's always going to look better if your hops to the server are lower and closers to your area/node that's all.

[resistanze]

Well no it's not always, and ping does matter as much for these kind of bandwidth tbh. Hence why the speeds I got were no different/better 350 miles away. Picking a decent server in Texas yielded similar results.

[illusioNtEk]

[Reck]

What kind of bandwidth you guys get? Doesn't having such huge speed eat up all the bandwidth?

[resistanze]

You mean cap? I don't have one, would be a waste like you said if not the case.

[DJR210]

Fuck a cap, I'd rather live in the stone age than give my cash to a company that caps.. Some of the games I install are 50 GB's, fuck that.

Just a couple of years ago I had an 80GB cap :lol

It was eventually increased to 300GB before I moved, but in these modern times where companies expect you to download/stream everything, it's laughable.

if those isp have their own streaming sites, then it should be cap free as long u stream from their sites...

[Reck]

Cap is something Fios would be using and imposing on their customers. lol

The speeds some of you are getting makes my head spin. I want at least half of that.

With how much shit I constantly download I really need it.

I usually download entire series in one go. For example I downloaded The Leftovers season 1 and 2 the other day. Was about 20GBs, not a lot but it took me almost 3 hours to download it and it had a lot of seeds and leechers to boot.

[hehateme]

1tb for gigapower as a cap, $10 for each additional tb which isn't to bad

[hehateme]

If you got comparable speeds all the way from cali to texas I will bow down and declare your isp as the greatest ever and never doubt it again.

Dallas and Austin...not too bad was slightly higher earlier today. But you get the picture.

To be fair 50 was the highest in Texas about a year ago. New York area should be upgraded by summer 2017.

[TDMVPDPOY]

fck the caps...as long u have a friend who works inside the provider, get him to reset ur cap :D

anyway...ur speeds are faster if you live next to the dslam

[Reck]

When they do it'll cost and arm and a leg.

My internet provider who's also my cable provider has a plan above the one I'm currently on, but it's too much. 100 down 50 up for 110 dollars. Never going to go for it.

[leemajors]

lol on adsl2 24mb connection :( $117 a month 1tb cap
http://www.speedtest.net/result/5059099333.png

wont be getting cable/fibre till end of the year or dec 2017 till my suburb gets the rollout down here...i dunno how they going to connect shit from the street to my house when i concrete the front and back yard, every cable is connected underneath the house, dont even have a power pole on the street :(

previous landlord vendor had cable tv with a satellite on the roof, i read u can now get cable internet from cabletv providers running running the same equipment, gotto check that up...might upgrade then wait for the rollout for 110mb connection ....

how fast can cable docsis3.1 achieved?

[IronMaxipad]

http://www.speedtest.net/result/5865328267.png

finally dropped att where i was only getting 6 mb down :lol:lol:cry

Bro stop pushing your TWC propaganda around here.. I had faster speeds with Grande on their lower tier 2 years ago..

I had to call your boys at Spectrum and punk them into giving me a better deal based on the new pricing model.. I get the advertised 100 mbps down (its actually 120 though) 10 up for 45 bucks after tax.. Good deal tbh, especially since it means avoidong AT&T

[TimDunkem]

http://www.speedtest.net/result/5869775722.png (http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5869775722)

A little over $60 a month for TWC and their horrible customer service here. I pay too much, tbh.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Pretty sad my home AT&T "fiber" internet is faster than our Google fiber servers, well at least today it is.

I just ditched piece of shit Time Warner for ATT Fiber. I was paying about $67 for 100mbs. For $70 this is what I get through ATT fiber. And this is going through my wifi AC router, not even connected straight to the Fiber modem. :lol

You ones that are posting 200+ up and down, what the hell is your location and how much are you paying.
Far as i know that chit cannot be touched here in So Cal.
Farking scam INET prices here for 36 up 7 down.

RGMCSE your system is that fast for only 70 bucks a month?!

[RGMCSE]

Yes sir! Just bought me a couple of HP Envy's with some nice specs. I typically would build my own box but I'm to the point where I don't give a shit to do that anymore. I got great value for the hardware at Best Buy. So I get over 235mbs down on wifi alone. I connected it to the WIFI router just to see what I could get wired through a 1GB nic and got over 700mbs down. I'm too lazy to connect the cat5 directly to the Fiber modem or it might hit closer to 1gbs. :lol I think there was another Fiber thread about a year ago and several of us were discussing when Fiber would hit SA. I got a flyer in the mail for ATT fiber about a week ago and called then switched in no time flat. Now Time warner is butt hurt as hell and trying to charge me for hardware I don't even have. :flipoff The streaming and just the overall quickness that my browser flips pages like flowing water is amazing!

[DJR210]

It's the new Gigabit lines they're installing.. Shit is up to 1 GB per second.. The speeds sound nice as hell, but I can't fuck with caps unless they set that bar to a place I couldn't hit. I'm trying to ditch DirecTV so I'd have to pay like 30 bucks more for unlimited, fuck that

I don't have a cap. Just checked my bill and it says unlimited. I wouldn't accept terms with an isp if I had a cap because what's the point then.

If you just got it they have some promotion advertising no cap.. If not, do you have cell/landline or TV w/ them?

[DJR210]

Looks like this is you right here.. after that promotional period ends your bill is going up at least 30 bucks for the data, and whatever they charge for the equipment, assuming you don't use your own

Ive had Directv for 10+ years. Maybe they're considering that a bundle?

On a side note, it's funny to me how Google launched their plans on making affordable fiber networks a reality in several markets (including SA), and everyone else beats em to the punch :lol

ah yes that's it. In a year I'll just threaten to leave and get another discount.

[DJR210]

Yeah, so you're good even after the 1 year period as long as you keep it.. Even though I subscribe to DirecTV, I don't plan on it after my contract ends in March because SlingTV now gives me access to the majority of the Spurs games

Dude you need to call and haggle with them if you want better prices. I called and threatened to leave and now I pay $79 for the choice extra package. My total for fiber and choice extra tv is $155. My bill used to be well over $260 a month.

And yeah, pricing isn't the issue w/ DirecTV.. I mean it's overpriced as shit, but I'm sure it's worth it to somebody who watches a ton of shit on TV.. I just don't find myself watching anything other than Spurs and Cowboys on TV, the Exodus plugin on Kodi TV has everything I need at the moment.

Yep, did the same for our's. Threatened AT&T and they hooked it up with multi-year price locked Gigabit service and and uVerse (w/ HBO) for $143/month. Once that deal is about to end I'll call up the retention line again!

Pretty much the same here, but I like having a consistent TV option for guests and family. Not everyone knows how to fire up the Kodi and go to town like we do.
