Upload Speed: 101 kbps (12.6 KB/sec transfer rate)

Im on Tata Indicom Broadband, Connection speed as per Connection Details is 544 kbps... Though tariff plan says 256 kbps...

I typically get about 210 kbps down and 180 kbps up... I think it is pretty good...

Most sites load pretty fast... Today, I was downloading some brochures from a US website, I had about 5 simultaneous downloads and I was hitting about 25 KBps regularly...

Only gripe is this forum often takes forever to load... Most other sites I visit load fast... Not sure if it is traffic or something else...

Oh!!! now I understand Sify SUCKSSS!!!!!...... I have renewed by connection nearly after 4 months... 'cause of my boards exams.......when I said to renew they renewed after 2 days and also I found tht someone has cutted the internet CABLE wire.. When asked about this they said tht they r not responsible for it.....moreover they took Rs.300 from me and introduced a new wire... This such a mess........Also when surfing the internet it always stuck in between.....Most of the problems I face r...."The Local Area Network is Unplugged" and "There was problem when connecting Sify server".........

Secondly it is my mistake... I should have not renewed my account......

the upload/ download speed may vary at an time instance. One may be higher than the other at that secong when the calculation is going on.

BTW, the isps usually provide lower upload speed than download.

Default Re: My 256KBPS Speed test

The upload & download speeds vary. Also your download from a particular Server
depends on several factors like how many users are connected to that Server,
How many simulatanous connections the Server can serve without compromising
speed, If too many users connect to a Server, than what it can handle it will crash!,
If there is a Server-overload your download speed will definitely decrease!!
Always download from the Server when it's not busy, you can get higher download
speeds, for eg., if you connect to a Server in the US connect & download in the
morning (our time) since it's night in the US , the traffic to the Server will be less.

Actually, when i opt for a 256 kbps connection, then is amy reserved bandwidth equal to 256 kbps down+64kbps up or is it only 256 kbps down and the upload speeds r a bonus ?
