I pay AU$40 (~US$25) a month and the fastest I can dowload is around 40KBs!! That's a 512kbs connexion. Damn you and your fast interwebs!
Yes let us a revolt and rid the world of the fast interwebs long live the 10-60kbs

a) 10 mbps through University network. Over the summer packet inspection was off, Alleg lag around 25-60. Now that inspection is on again, lag is about 500. The other night I got a download temporarily registering 1.9 MB/s, which I'm not sure is even technically possible. Usually in the hundred's of KB.
Whatever wireless the local coffee shops are sporting. 50-200 lag, depending on how many yokels are busy pirating music.
c) Parents' House: 48k dial-up, $15/mo. shared line w/ phone.

uhhh, more like you ripping off cable with a splitter. I know not a cable company charge 15$ for even basic cable let alone cable and highspeed internet. Where do you live? The Phillipines? /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

Lag at 500
Do you even play with that?
I thought my 160 lag was bad but wow. /wacko.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wacko:" border="0" alt="wacko.gif" />

That's funny... using the same link (in the UK, so it must bounce around North America first before it gets it feet wet) my upstream was 385.4. /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />
(download was 2,240)
