Ask HN: What is your download speed?
In any order: Download speed, Upload speed, Location? and ISP. Also would be nice to get more details about how your connection is set up.

- DanBC 13y agohttp://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3174979000 http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3174979000 Current ISP: T-Mobile (using a broadband dongle) Location: UK UP: 0.57 Mbps DOWN: 0.53 Mbps Cheap - £30 for 90 days with "no limits" (but with limits). Sucky image caching. Sucky client (but you don't have to use it). Awful customer support.
- SimonJWright 13y agoDown: 50 Mbps, Up: 20 Mbps Location: Tasmania, Australia ISP: Internode (NBN)
- tchadwick 13y agoDown: 100 Mbps Up: 20 Mbps Location: Canada ISP: SaskTel It's a fiber connection. I'm not sure why they limit the upstream so much.
- bmelton 13y ago> I'm not sure why they limit the upstream so much. So that you don't run a data center from your house, which would saturate the network, which they are likely overselling, and so you don't cannibalize from the hosting services they would also be happy to sell you ala carte. Also, in general web usage, the UPstream data requests are usually much smaller than the DOWN. E.g., "GET http://youtube.com/video" http://youtube.com/video" is very small, even with headers and whatnot added in, compared to the size of the video returned. It's more like 100:1 than 100:20, so unless you're trying to run services from home, you're likely coming out ahead.
- Avalaxy 13y agoDown: 100 Mbps Up: 10 Mbps Location: Netherlands ISP: UPC Cable :)
- dirktheman 13y agoExactly the same here (NL too). Don't think I need this kind of speed, but it was included in the package... Note that this costs you about EUR 55 per month, including landline phone AND cable TV. Not too bad compared to other countries!
