What ISP is this?

Optimum, only available around NYC

I'm not computer smart. What is considered an average Upload speed, Download speed, and Ping.

Remember that mbps means megabits per second, not megabytes per second, which is MB/s. 8mbps = 1MB/s.
8mbps download, 1mbps upload is standard.

Ping is completely irrelevant. It is just pretty much the time it takes to communicate with a specific server, which changes for everyone because nobody uses the same ISP and lives in the same house.

What if i said the only way i can reach up there is if i had a top of the line computer? This is a laptop but my desktop is the only computer that manages to reach it up there.

is Ohio close enough to new york?

> less than 50 miles

no stuff its like 2 miles down the street to grand rapids

Go figure, the only good ISPs are in/close to Toronto.
Looking back, this is the highest speed I've ever really gotten as a result.


EDIT
Remembering back a bit, my parents constantly talked about how "our internet lags a lot," but they haven't done jack all to change it.
I think they're unwilling to change. I'm still going to be just as consistent in asking to change ISPs though.

It's from a server I rent and it's located incorrectly, the testing server is in the same city.

Wow, are you still on Dial-up?
I feel sorry for you, you're getting worse internet service than I am.

Nope, he gets less than you would with your 0.256mbps connection.

You are getting what you paid for. You paid for 256kbps, you are getting 30kB/s. one kB (kilobyte) is equal to eight kb (kilobits). 32 times 8 is 256.
