Test, describe, compare and discuss your net connection speed.

My results, for Dublin Ireland were:
Download; 1743 kb/s
Upload; 208 kb/s
ISP; Eircom
Server; Dublin
Ping; 61 ms (no idea what this is)
Distance; < 50 mi

Use the Hyperlink to embed yours. I am using airport wireless net through an eircom (also my isp) router, on a mac book pro. I’ve been told here in Ireland we are amongst the worst speeds in europe, as far as I know all our cables are still copper, while in most countries they are fiber optical cable or in the process of converting from copper to fiber op. So tell me about your connection, and let’s see who’s the fastest and why. :]

Well looking at it I’d say it’s not great but I don’t have anything for comparison, what is your setup? Wireless broadband?
