Your line speed is approximately 573.8 Kbps or 70.3 K bytes/sec

That was for the 500k speed test, and I even did a hard refresh and cleared the cache. Woot this is owning.

Now I gotta find something to download!!!

190061 2003-11-08 10:46:00 Well I am still on the extra fast speed according to the data transfer test:

Average data speeds : 143.63 KBps (KiloBytes per second)

But I have put my connection to good use and now I have the complete 3-CD Fedora Linux ISO's set off a local server which was a bit of good timing because I had already just downloaded one ISO file before going uncapped :)

Better not get too used to this :D

Maybe someone hacked them and switched the jetstart users over to jetstream and the jetstream users to jetstart speeds :) :D

190063 2003-11-08 11:26:00 New update, I've actually been on full JetStream speed all day, but didn't realise it cos the P2P can't reach its full potential due to limited sources. So I've just done some speed tests and I'm getting 400kB/sec++ downloading files.

*Downloads full macromedia 2004 trial suite 337mb* in record time of 5mins!!!!

Now I'm running out of hard drive space...must burn everything to cd... fast!!! :D Anything cool I should download fellas? Time to capitalise on this opportunity!.

Oh soo cool. Forgive my ramblings :D

190064 2003-11-08 11:48:00 LOL yeah? ya did it! tsk tsk ... :) anyway it's weird, since I only been on Jetstream for an month, after being on Jetstart for an year. Hopefully err later on the day it will improve. pisceskiwi (1303)
190065 2003-11-09 05:30:00 the boost isn't for me i guess, 15 kb/sec..

190066 2003-11-09 07:22:00 I'm still uncapped and loving it! Downloading off Direct Connect at 100kB/sec off others who are uncapped as well....oh so cool. Awsome thing is it hardly counts towards my traffic limit so I could download 20gbs and only have it count as 2Gb international. PoWa (203)
