Hey everyone, I'm curious, how fast is your connection?
I'm asking because in the past month or so many people have said they won't bother downloading "large" files. What they specify as large is quite different from what I would though(large = 200mb  ).
So how fast is your connection? Mine is 1.5mbit(~170kb/sec)Telus ADSL, and is dirt cheap in canada(the price of dialup).

The cable where I live jumps from street to street. My street's line connects to one with heavy traffic, that pulls off a max of 34kb/sec.(which is why I have ADSL)
I know someone across town that gets 680kb/sec though, all the time.

Super-fast connection from the University, for about £50 for the year! When it works, that is...

Ive got a 2mbit/512kbit (down/up) ADSL connection supplied by a danish company (I live in Denmark). The ISP is called Cybercity.
I cannot complain about the speed at all, even though I live in the country. The price is around £60 a month ... but then again ... Denmark is not known for its cheap internet suppliers  .
If you knew, I would have to kill you...

So everyone on the forums has fast connections?
Hmmm....100mb/sec is a bit fast. That's a 765mbps connection - a nice OC line similar to something EBAY uses.

Your £21.99 is $52.93 Canadian, so my $24.95 is £10.37. Dirt cheap.  Too bad prices were hiked from the old $16.95.

Mine's so quick, my 'downloads' finish in only 4 thrusts.
Show me the power child,
I'd like to say,
That I'm down on my knees today,
Gives me the butterflies,
Gives me away,
'Til I'm up on my feet again,
I'm feeling outshined.
