| 649532 | 2008-03-14 23:31:00 | Hi, is anyone else having same problem downloading speed from overseas servers is pathetic, it been 3 weeks now that im lucky if i get more than 20kb. Before that my minimum download speed let say from rapidshare would be 50kb. BTW. im with orcon. Ping and loading pages is fast also speedtest is fast as. |

| 649535 | 2008-03-14 23:50:00 | Do you know how to read ! What I meant was - have you tried doing 2 speed tests - 1 locally *AND* 1 internationally? |

| 649536 | 2008-03-15 00:02:00 | yea..the international comes up with my speed just above dial-up !! lol I just sent email to orcon with complaint..coz its been too long and i expect a refund if they confirm my speed. |

| 649537 | 2008-03-23 01:07:00 | Yup, I too have been getting international speeds as slow as dial up with Orcon. It irritates me that isp's have status pages but dont use them. If Orcon could post on their network status, that international speeds are slower than usual, I could just be anoyed at the fact that its slow, rather than slow, and not knowing why!!! I have emailed them a week ago with no reply. I too will change to another isp, if they cant even reply to my emails! | Splatty (13511) | ||
| 649538 | 2008-03-23 01:22:00 | Do a download test here: http://www.speedtest.net/ It can depend on the server - if heaps of people are downloading there. Rapidshare sounds a bit dodgy :confused: Are you still within your GB allowance that is you are not over your limit and into dialup speed? |

| 649539 | 2008-03-23 01:27:00 | Do you know how to read ! If that's true then its the server that you are trying to access. You can have the fastest internet if you are trying to access servers that is super hot in demand the one that is like "hosting files" - rapidshare - its not going to work. You might be useful in contacting "rapidshare". |

Sigh. www.pressf1.co.nz Possibly a whole lot of people are using P2P through rapidshare? From a server in Auckland:- www.speedtest.net (http://www.speedtest.net) From a server in Europe Rapidnet Prague www.speedtest.net (http://www.speedtest.net) |
