I call BS! Thats a university ISP! :) Youll be throttled if you try to actually make use of that sexy network.

Maybe you are, but I'm not. With usenet we can easily get 40mbit down, with peak during the night hours up to 70mbit.

I seed torrents all the time, occasionally 24/7 when something really important is going around. When Sita Sings the Blues was released in HD, I seeded over 1Tb in 24 hours, which is an average up speed of >10Mb/s. I used to get harassing emails from the IT department about it, but I kept complaining and finally they stopped.

works for me! i started digitalBYOND on a Pentium MMX box with less bandwidth (1Mb up / 256Kb down), and hosted 3 games with an average of 30 players daily. lag was rarely an issue.

Okay, so my download speed is pretty decent, but my upload speed is terrible. Any suggestions on how to speed up my upload speed?

I don't know how this thread turned so far off-topic that everyone felt the need to post their own connection speeds, but as was the general consensus, your upload speed isn't terrible; in fact it doesn't get much better than that for consumer ISPs. If you can't make do with that upload speed, you probably have too much data going upstream regularly (torrents, Limewire, etc. come to mind). There's no reason for a 2.78 Mb/s upload speed to feel sluggish at all unless you're really stressing it, so the way to speed that up is to simply not send as much data upstream.

I'm going to close this so it stops filling up with this "penis measurement contest" clutter.
