Why living on a tiny island sucks monkey balls.

[marick626]

And this is considered fast here.

What island are you on?

What island are you on?

Puerto Rico is in the Caribbean. A few of hours of swimming from where you are. By few I mean allot.

 

[chudley]

Thats still not bad tbh, I am in Dorset in the UK and get worse than that where I live.

This is what I get, note this is NOT in megabits but in megabytes.

So a feel sorry for you my friend, but if you live in a beautiful place, I would happily swap with you!

Looks like megabits to me...

Although, I wouldn't mind living in Puerto Rico

Meh, upload is slow today.

Meh, upload is slow today.

doesnt count hmmblah merit only provides high-performance networking and related services to educational, government, health care, and nonprofit organizations

But i can happily laugh as i have 100mb virgin media with 10mb upload trial at the moment though.

But OP you get a faster connection then a friend on 20mb sky who lives in Middlesbrough

Sure it counts. Why wouldn't it? I set up the connection, I manage it. I use the Internet in my office far more than I do at home. All I use it at home for is downloading/uploading WUs and Netflix

[siravarice]

No I changed it in the settings bar, although, what numbers do you see? I went on the mobile version and it had it in megabits instead of megabytes.

I see 10.48 megabits down and 0.75 megabits up.

 

[siravarice]

Weird, I see it in megabytes. Oh well.

Living on a big island isn't necessarily better, and i don't exactly live in the sticks either.



I wish they (BT / Virgin) would get cable to more people rather than concentrating on getting faster and faster BB to the minority.

 

[Stryker64]

You know, your internet is still as fast as the top internet speeds in Australia xD Can't wait until we get the new upgraded broadband network!

 

[AMDFTW]

this is mine now i live 1mile from the exchange,but the house is old lol

were i lived before i got 20mb and i mean 20mb

 

[bobkelso]

I live in wales.

just got



seems to be on my side today never seen it this high....

 

[marick626]

Holy $#%&

. Atleast you guys have the options. Where I live there is no cable, and even then the max speed I have seen advertised for cable is 6Mb/s. I have to use these wireless transmitters to get my internetz.

I can't wait to move to the states.

Purely for the faster internet connections.

 

[bobkelso]

Btw wales is a rather rainy place....

Have you heard of Wales, I was watching have I got news for you before when charlotte church was on it and she met Bill clinton and he thought it was in the states

. (just curious)

 

[Stryker64]

Move to South Korea, world's fastest internet =D They are getting close to 1 Gbit/s and their slowest internet speed is broadband, since dial up has been completely phased out, also cheapest internet
