Broadband @ home

I just upgraded my home broadband connection to 10 megabits/second. Nice ha? :-)

Interesting. What is the real speed you are getting. I'm on a 10Mbit plan as well, but the gateways to international sites are hopelessly under dimensioned. So at the wrong time of the day I get 1.5k/sec.

I'll be sure to let you know once the new speed kicks in. Hopefully tonight! :-)

I have a 24Mbit ADSL broadband connection at home, but upstream is only 1 Mbit. What I wouldn't give for a 10/10 Mbit!

You really need to tune your TCP/IP stack on Windows to be able to use as much of such a large bandwidth. You can find the program here: http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php

I have run it, and let itself set my optimal settings. My download went from 1.6Mb/s to 3.2Mb/s. (MTU and RWIN settings are important settings to improve utilization of bandwidth)

And use a wired connection - I've never seen wireless being able to compete with wired (no mater how good the signal or wireless standard).
