[Gui!]

stumbled across this today, my jaw dropped

[Harryz]

I'm still stuck with 512k, heh. I reallly need to change ISP.

 

[The Monkey]

I could've got 24 Mbit, but iy was too expensive, so I settled for 8 Mbit. Still no broadband though, those who live in the big cities can get up to 1 Gbit.

 

[JellyWorld]

The max available here is 25mbps i think.

 

[ríomhaire]

Max available here is 52kb.

 

[Quixoticism]

1.5Mb is all that is offered in my city. ;( I hate it.

 

[Gui!]

im still on 512kbs lame

and what oyu talkin about there is no such thing as 1gb connection not yet, the japs are half way there with 500mb connection. No one can get 1 gb yet lol, thats silly

 

[Cole]

Well I got something lamber, 56k modem! Yes the onlything better around here is sat, but still that has worse pings for gaming.
So no, not in any area near me.

 

[Gorgon]

you can get it now from

www.bethere.co.uk

 

[giant384]

wow 24mbs lol thats uber fast im only stuck with 1.5mb for now

 

[Gui!]

i hope i can get this, amazin pings..lag free...score

 

[Dekstar]

I'm upgrading to 2mb/s soon. 24 is only good for bit-torrent, and even then you're rarely going to get that speed unless you're downloading from Bill Gates.

 

[DEATH eVADER]

If I had money I would pay the internet bills for my Dad. Would 8Mb be worth it (This is a 512kb user)

8mb is more than enough for anyone unless its for a business then u prob. need 24mb

Its a shame I can't rip out my universitie's 100Mps connection and trail it to my house

 

[Ren.182]

I have 2meg at the moment. And Blueyonder are upgrading me to 10meg soon.
Looking forward to that.

So, so true, especially for us Welshies :cheers:

24megs omg...

I'm having an orgasm right now.

 

[chewyxx]

I have 100 Mbps is that any good?

 

[giant384]

thats not your bandwidth thats just the transfer speed on the network

 

[Top Secret]

Man, I remember playing Rainbow Six on 28k.

 

[EC]

It's been so long since I've had to endure the awful screeching of the dial-up modem. We got cable when it first came into the area, around 1999 or 2000. Jumping from 56k to 3mbit at that time was quite awesome.
I'm still happy with the 4mbit that we get now. However, 24mbit would be sex.

 

[TheSomeone]

I have 4mb connection

 

[ailevation]

I'm a 3.0 Mbps DSL connection. Lets see... Cable speeds from the same service provider offer speeds up to 5.0 Mbps. Wowzorz.

I cannot wait until we hit the age where internet speed will be instantaneous... for all people. So, when we see somebody skipping in a server we'll know his ass is hacking... because all connections will be super fast so... 0 ping for all!

 

[15357]

*laughs at everyone*

I have a 100mbps VDSL!

 

[S.L.]

^Tell me where to get this... or else it will result in mass murder...

Come to the Republic of Korea (South Korea) and go to a metropolitian area.

Then, subscribe to an ISP and theyll come and install.

 

[DreamThrall]

[Lemonking]

god damn even the monkey has faster I-net then me :/


I hate this area I dont wanna wait till december



*spits on his modem
*crys

 

[Fonaki]

Wish I had at better connection too... I'm stuck at 0,7 mbps, but they are upgrading now - to the fantasitic speed of 1mbps:| Dad won't pay anything over the cheapest connection so here we go!
And on top of that, max incoming in this contry (norway) is 4mbps, man I hate the "we don't wanna spend more money now"-goverment - after all, we're the richet contry in world for Gods sake!!

 

[Lemonking]

sounds like a nice dream.
doubt it'll happen in our lifetimes anyway...at least to the point where 90% of gamers can afford it.

 

[Fat Tony!]

Im happy enough with my 10mb connection at uni, don't need any faster tbh

 

[Goo3y]

Well your wrong im afraid. We aren't even in the top 10 richest in Europe.

The only reason we don't have the fast internet lines is because our government is screwing us over with our phone lines, they are too busy ripping us off with the less expensive slower broardband, but these Swedes saw what was going on and came to capitalise on them. Wooohoo

 

[Goo3y]

UK isn't in the top 10? biggest economy in Europe. 2nd largest population. Largest GDP. ROKAY!!!!!!

3rd biggest economy in the world. After USA and Japan. I just had the discusion with you on xfire. You thought Ireland was richest. LoLoL from selling popatoes : /

Luckily i may still have a little love left for you. JUST!

Anyway OFF TOPIC!
