| 1209692 | 2011-06-16 22:01:00 | Yep Slingshot is the best, have my 40Gb upgraded to 80Gb for no cost (55/month) cant beat that anywhere. And with 20.5 down and 1.1 up it is lightning fast, was downloading dukenukem from steam at 2.3MB/s. Im very happy with slingshot, so they have one happy customer. | Gobe1 (6290) | ||
| 1209693 | 2011-06-16 22:44:00 | ....but internationally? All of what you've said is probably NZ-local, such as Steam, and national Speedtest mirrors, yet 90% of browsing probably comes from overseas ;) |

| 1209695 | 2011-06-16 23:33:00 | No, YouTube can be locally cached also. Try a Speedtest to Australia? |

| 1209697 | 2011-06-17 00:15:00 | Good ideas What about nvidia drivers? i know you can select what part of the world you are in? |

| 1209698 | 2011-06-17 00:43:00 | Pretty sure the nVidia drivers also have a local akamai mirror. | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 1209699 | 2011-06-17 00:51:00 | Bugger i just downloaded some at work and got 1.8mb/s i thought that was pretty good. | Gobe1 (6290) | ||
| 1209700 | 2011-06-17 04:23:00 | Just checked, definitely in NZ. In the office here, I average 2ms pings to us.download.nvidia.com and easily pull down at 15m/bit. |
