Knotch_Blade Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Okay, so I was streaming the MLG Meadowlands competition, and it required a 1.5 mb/s internet connection for flawless viewing... They recommended this site for testing your speed. Well I was quite shocked at this summary I received... Why is my internet running at such a low level, compared to other users on my isp? Why does it say West Virginia average when I live in Texas? Why is my internet only slightly faster than the average African connection? ~Knotch P.S. The African comment isn't me being racist, the average according to the aforementioned site is 1.03 mb/s.

OldJoe Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Depends on what speed you've paid for. Just because the avarage is higher than yours doesn't mean you have the same speed as others but getting lower speed still. And speedtest is a bit weird, it's off with 2 on download and .5 on upload for me. J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff moviesJe trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vieJe ne me reconnais plus dans les gensJe suis juste un cas désespérantEt comme personne ne viendra me réclamerJe terminerai comme un objet retrouvé Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champion Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 My download speeds are like that for me too, where the average ISP speed for my state is noticeably higher than my own. I have the same question. Just curious, what does it say for upload speeds? Mine's above the average ISP for the state. :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compfreak847 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Call your cable company and complain, but before doing so check what plan your paying for. If it's the 1.5 down plan, your getting your rated speed, pay more or deal with it :?
