it's just 'base adsl' 35 euros or so a monthOriginally Posted by Jay.slovak
Wow, that's cool. How can you afford it? Does it have Data Limit ?
for 50 u get 10Mb
Jay.slovak:
Well I am not sure its bits or bytes cause never cared to look at itOh 5Mbits, that's not a lot, We thought it goes 5MBytes per second...
When I checked now on my office computer it was showing 200KB/s
and by standard notations i guess this is KiloBytes
Will have to check on my home computer
As I was not sure whether it is bits or bytes and didnt wanted to exagrate so I prefered writing Mb rather than MB
Anyways whatever it is I guess its a good speed

Ok, so you have 5Mbits (That's pretty fast anyways)Jay.slovak:

As you know 8bits = 1Byte
Internet speed is marked with Mbits. 5Mbits / 8 = 0,625MBytes/s = 640Kbytes/s

I also thought the sameInternet speed is marked with Mbits.
But when I checked now on my office computer while downloading an file using IE
it showed 200KB/s
So i guess download speeds are marked in Bytes/s rather than Bits/s

Yes, But I said Internet speed (As Advertised by ISPs), ofcourse Download speed (marked in KB/s) is more useful.

I've got 56k dial up connection. I always get screwed when downloading tstuffs.
You shod see how crapy ADSL is provided by Arnes.It can be worse than dialup.So its cheap.
The thing downloads 10kB/s!!! somtines even down to 2 kB/s.

That depends on where you are getting your download from, if the server can only give 2K/sec you will only download at that speed...
Try downloading something large on bittorrent (something good with a lot of seeds), that's a true test for internet speed...
700Kb/sec is nothing special
No its from an website i get from 200Kb/s to 100Kb/s at home.I dont know why there speed sucks sooooo much.
Il give you shocking experience.
