How fast is your Cable connection?

[u1arunit]

We finally got Digital Cable Internet where I live and have been running some speed tests to see how fast it is.

I used http://www.testmy.net/speedtest/d_load.php for the tests.

My best so far w/o any computer setting tweeks is:



What do you guys get with your setups?

[blizzard]

says 3.7MB/s with 100MB download... comcast sucks and i'm wireless w Airport Xtreme but opens up a little when i'm torrenting music/movies tho bittorrent eats up some bandwidth.

going Verizon wireless broadband once i'm not locked up in my house anymore.

edit (different site):

edit2: other speed test sites are sayin' 7.2 to 10.8, i wonder how reliable these test sites are ??
