Re: [Skunkworks] Comparing ISP speeds using speedwave
As expected it is much slower going international: Canterbury (UK) Down: 0.70 Mb/s Up: 0.79 Mb/s Ping: 475 ms Boston (USA) Down: 0.67 Mb/s Up: 1.07 Mb/s Ping: 367 ms I was assuming that everyone else just picked the default server and that were measuring connection to the local ISP. If not then it isn't an apples to apples comparison. Josh On 12/17/2011 10:17 PM, skunkworks-request@lists.my.co.ke wrote:

@Josh What about when you select an international server like in the UK?
@Josh Those speeds are better than what any other local ISP provides at the same price range. The only problem is the efficiency/speed at which problems are fixed when the connection misbehaves _______________________________________________ *Good judgement comes from Experience.* *Most of that comes from Bad Judgement.* _______________________________________________ * * 2011/12/17 Josh Handley <josh@bridgeinternationalacademies.com>

The Zuku connection 7.67 Mb/s down and 1.90 Mb/s up has a roundtrip average of 25ms. I suspect the server chosen was the Zuku one. ./bernard On Sun, Dec 18, 2011 at 10:27 AM, James Nzomo <kazikubwa@gmail.com> wrote:
