Speedtest






Mine isn't anywhere near to the truth. Also, I finally know why HLP's cluster map says that I live in Rome - it's because of the TIM server(I live several thousand kms to the south).

School, but as it's an American college I live there as well. (I know that's done differently in a lot of places; it's not meant as any kind of declaration of American superiority.)

Both school, just different servers near me. Decent enough to me--at least at night.

Actually, the public universities in Singapore have hostels too. There's nothing to declare there. More than anything, it's just the American way of education. :)

Stop mucking about and post your speed, Dilmah. ;)

...actually, I'm interested to know why ssmit chose a server so far away. Isn't there a nearer server? Or did SpeedTest.net specify that as the recommended server?

Sorry, I didn't know you could change it.

Yeah, it's not that great. But I didn't get broadband for the speed (I mean, speed is nice, but...) so much as for the always on part. I should have realised the first ones were much too high for my connection.
