| 755816 | 2009-03-14 01:46:00 | I cheat - I'm at uni, and the speedtest server is the ISP that the uni uses. Hence the low ping and high speeds. | stephen (9719) | ||

| 755818 | 2009-03-14 08:38:00 | I don't get how I can get lower download speeds and pings to local servers. In WGTN I get 3.8MB/s and 120ms. Sydney servers go to 4.2MB/s and 60ms. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE??? |

| 755819 | 2009-03-14 19:40:00 | The short local connection (with all those corners etc.) does not allow the signals time to get to full speed, whereas on the NZ - Sydney route there are long straight sections where the signal can really let fly. ;) ;) | R2x1 (4628) | ||

The local stuff goes by surface and so can get pinged by speed cameras. (Some Telecom "broadband" is so slow it can be pinged with oil paintings ;) ) |
