From home, on cable, it hangs around 40kb/s (expected)
But now I am at a location with dual T1’s and an available 320 to 330kb/s of available bandwidth.
I am working on an ftp upload that is hovering around 110 to 150 at max. I know bandwidth will not always be availble on a shared line, but I am thinking this is abit slow.
What is the actual available speed/connection from the Jodo NOC? Does it burst?
I am concerned because I will be DL’ing a large package at many of my clients. If it runs at 40 to 100 KB/s, that stinks. Would be great to see it dl off Jodo host at 3 to 5mb per sec or 300 to 500KB/s.
150kb/s is maxing a t1 line, are the t1 lines actually “bound” to one? If not, that is why 150kb/s was the max. I have a 100megabit connection downtown, and can get some insane speeds
As a test, when I use FlashGet and open 5 connections to the host, I get 602.72 KB/s which equates to 4.931 MB/s
Using all of my Cable modem Bandwidth.
What does this mean? It could mean that any single connection is limited…
Anyone have any other ideas?
1 session only runs so high, but the bandwidth is there with multiple connections. If there is no throttling, then why can’t 1 session pull the full 4.931 MB/s
I am not complaining, and I do agree that they are not terrible speeds.
Although, if you take the two dynamics that were just mentioned; Shared Hosting and community cable connectivity, even with those, I conjointly pull 4.6MBps multiple connections. That validates that the bandwidth is there in whole. Why is the bandwidth not there in a single session?
How does one go about figuring this out?
Why is this important? Well for starters, podcasting, file downloads and over all page serves. If users are on high speed lines, then they should be able to surf faster. Serving out at under T1 speeds is abit old school. Keep in mind every speedtest result off this thread was posted late in the evening. One would hahve to believe that is the best time… what happens during the day? If it cut in half… that would stink.
