Internet Connections
Moderator: CricketMX Forum Moderators
I am now on 1536/256 ADSL, but I am soon going to 512/512 so I can P2P more, specially with other mates using my ISP.

NTL tell me thats also right so i guess it must be, i have known ppl get pretty much what there connection is and others that have got nowhere near,
hope u can sort things out tho, dunno if this is where u posted about you con. probs but i remember reading it somewhere

50.6k isn't too bad, you'll never connect at 56k, it's unheard of.Sureno_5outh~T3x~WeSlAcO wrote:i have 56k but always connect at 50.6 becuase of the distance of the server and my computer...i hate 56k .....
When I had 56k, about the best I got was 54k, usually it varied between 44 and 52 though.

1Mbit/128k cable
cheapest package they offer with the exception of the 256k pos they have (thats almost as bad as dialup)
I wouldn't mind if i had the connections they have at college though, 10Mbit on one line, 2-20Mbit (varying rate) on another line, and a load of backup ADSL lines just in case something should break... oh well, i can dream
