What speeds do you get?

Cable Nova Scotia, Canada. I get really high speeds on newsgroups. Just wish my upload speed was better.

My ISP is a small local Finnish ISP called TOASnet and my theoretical line speed is 100Mbps, although I've never maxed it out in practice. I think the best I've seen is about 7000KB/s.

Dude, I'm jealous of your super fast speed. How much do you pay per month, if you don't mind asking?

No u have a 6 megabit connection as apposed to a 6 megabyte connection 8 bits are a byte

I max out around 1.3mb/sec with my cable connection. I can live with it for now.

I can get 2mb down most of the time...

Best I can get is 640 kb/s (5mbit) :P

[Oh,you know.]

I have a 10Mbit line and I have got up to 1200-1300KB/s. Newsgroups are insanely fast. I usually get 1150KB/s or a little more.

been using newsgroups for about 3 weeks and getting the same speeds here

roll on May for 20Mb :w00t:

Maybe you have 5 Mbps instead of 5 MB?
Anyway, my cable ISP advertised speed is 5Mbps, and I get around 700-900KB/s from Usenetserver SSL connections.

Ah yes. So essentially I'm already maxing out my speed? :huh:

Interesting. From what I can tell, it is still much, much better than the UK. You are very lucky!

Can't complain. Now, if only my ISP had free binaries... That would result in some serious downloading.
