My internet speed at my apartment

[Classic]

Download: 16 megs, Upload: 4 megs.
That's so much better than my previous living situation, 1.5 megs and an unknown upload.  

ITT your speeds.

[ME##]

10-13 Mb/s down and at best 1 Mb/s up.

[ncba93ivyase]

at college i've maxed 21 megabytes download and 4 megabytes upload; that's 168 megabits/42 megabits in your pleb public isp units

At home it's just ~16 Mb/4Mb

[bluaki]

At home I get about 30Mb/15Mb
and at college 19Mb/4Mb

What kind of hick college do you go to?

I think that speed is faster than that I see people report having in the dorms at the largest colleges in my state

and it's Florida Institute of Technology

[Daddy]

I get 25Mbps up and down.

[silvertone]

how do you Figure this Thing out.

[Hippopo]

I don't look because the number might depress me. 

[PLEASEHELP1991]

I get 25Mbps up and down.

And that's the advertised speed. Sometimes it's faster, and sometimes it's a bit lower.

And that's the advertised speed. Sometimes it's faster, and sometimes it's a bit lower.

I usually get the advertised speed from Verizon.

It's been a bit slower over the last few days after someone hit a telephone pole down the street on Friday night.

[snoorkel]

max 2.5 MB/s down and about 1 MB/s up.

[PLEASEHELP1991]

max 2.5 MB/s down and about 1 MB/s up.

I see what you did there.

[Mando Pandango]

about 20 Mbps download, 1 Mbps upload

i siad MB/s because bitmeasurement doesn't conventionally apply to measuring transfer speed, just quotas ((home ISps advertise in Mbps because the number is higher than it would be in MB/s, there's no reason to)) .. like for instance if they truly advertised 20Mbps connection, you would be able to get 20*60*60*24*30 = 51.84 TB of transfer per month (this is also called dedicated 20mbps, to make the distinction from the other way they use it), but of course ISPs also give you a monthly transfer limit, making the bits per second notation meaningless. Mbps / Gbps is only *really* used when dealing with large amounts of data, because you can say "4Gbps" instead of "10,000 TB/month" ::: hence why saying "20Mbps" instead of "2.5 MB/s" is just counter-intuitively complicating things.
[spoiler]nah im just fuckin with you it's multiples of 8[/spoiler]
