Author Topic: got better internet speeds; obligatory speedtest.net results  (Read 2282 times)


Mine's a bit better since last time.

https://fast.com/ is more accurate. you can watch the speed in real time and the speed isn't bloated by ISPs to make them seem faster. only shows download speed tho.
i'm getting 10Mbps right now but it cuts out or ends up at like 100Kbps for minutes or more

this site is really hilarious because it's a big "forget you" to ISPs that might throttle speeds on netflix (lookin at u comcast) and prioritize traffic on speedtest. apparently the idea is that they can't prioritize speeds on fast unless they also do it on netflix or smth

at least that's what i read when it came out :-y

congrats, your ISP isn't a richardhole

My internet is exactly the same on both websites.



About the same on Fast.com.

Also, my brother got faster speeds on WiFi on his laptop than he/I do on our Ethernet connected desktops. How?!




Recently I had FTTH installed and lemme tell ya, from 4Mb/s download 0.5Mb/s upload to this is heavenly

because there's a 100mbit switch lurking somewhere, wifi n/ac goes over 100mbit
