That's in one of the open labs, but in another main computer lab it's about 4-5x as fast. No idea why I even made this...bored between classes.

What are you doing here when you could be downloading everything on the internet?

I'll try to go in the main lab and run the test. I remember the first time I ran it a year ago it was something like 635Mb/sec.

I should check the fiber at my job.

Now that is fast compared to my schools average 14.5mb/second!

Rating today vs Monday doesn't make any sense...I guess upload matters more to Ookla.

Now that's what I'm talking about!

Haven't tried it (and probably shouldn't since they can trace me), but I could download a full 4.7GB DVD in less than a 45 seconds if the host server let me max out the connection.

My home connection :(

And chances are extremely high that will be as fast as it gets for many years.

Little faster, I should try it from the administration building.

The server you connect to can make a huge difference, a lot of them aren't as fast as me which is why the speeds vary so much.

Pretty good, considering I'm paying for 75/35.

How much is FiOS? BTW I'm from Virginia Beach originally.
Title: Re: My school has really fast internet...
Post by: nickmitch on August 30, 2013, 10:55:09 PM
Neat! I'm not from the area; I'm actually from New Orleans. I just live up here now.

As for FiOS, I would say too much. But I get enough internet for all my peripherals, HD cable, HBO, multi-room DVR (which I need to cancel because I'm not using) for about $160/month.

Pfft, talk about waste. Tony Abbott says Australia will only need 25megabits in 2019

Post by: oohhboy on September 02, 2013, 09:42:24 PM
That is a joke. Even here in NZ I can get 100Mbps VDSL for about 25% more than I pay for ADSL @ 16Mbps.

P.S. Please shutup Lucariofan.

Nobody likes that type of person. Don't be that type of person.

alright then lets do this. if focus blast hits under normal circumstances rattata would be dead on impact, BUT, this rattata happens to be carrying a little item called a Focus Sash that allows it to survive what would normally be a 1hko (abeit with 1hp, )

I then use a little move called endeavor, which when used will bring your opponents pokemon to the same amount of remaining HP as the user.

thus both pokemon are down to 1hp, Your move :smug:

I know that trick i do it with my gengar then use destiny bond!
Alright aura sphere dead!
p.s try it with a shedinja it can not die! pretty unfair!
Title: Re: My school has really fast internet...
Post by: pokepal148 on September 04, 2013, 07:15:39 PM
apparently not because this trick involves using quick attack to bring you down to 0 before you can move. thus you have lost the battle :smug:

yep(hence why I let you pick your move first) and using a multihit move like bullet punch would allow you to bypass the focus sash as well.

I'm finally at nickmitch's 2013 level (at home), aside from upload. Paying for 75/5. No more ridiculous school internet, but being done with school is better.

Bright House has 150Mbps and 300Mbps available too...might have to try it out. $15 per speed increase each, but you get free repeaters too.
