    I don't have the numbers, but I can tell it's slower that molasses on Velcro. Satellite internet, go figure.

    I get anywhere between 2.4 mbps to 3.2 mbps. Just enough to do some gaming but nothing spectacular. This is about all I'm allotted for my area. My package is an 18mbps package but we all know we never actually get that much. My download speed is usually consistent at 2.4 mbps. The good thing is that I usually have great ping.

    Unfortunately I cant. The 18 Mbps limit is as high as it goes for regular Civilian contracts with most major providers in my area. Houston has not upgraded to Fiber Optic and therefore does not offer speeds that actually exceed more than 60 Mbps. The only way to get faster internet than 18 Mbps (As of right now) is you have to run a business that includes servers. I can't do anything about it. I wish Cox Internet would hurry up and invade Texas because they are a Fiber Optic company and they would force the Internet Revolution in our state. Fast Internet for a cheap price.

    I lived in California for a long time. Cox internet moved in and took over the market because the could offer a deal for 80 Mbps (Reliable and Stable), for about $35 a month. My previous internet, before switching while I lived there, I was paying about $80 a month for about 20 Mbps that I only got during the times of 2 AM - 8 AM. All the rest of the time my internet sucked so bad that I couldn't even play a browser based game.

    When I moved back home, I pretty much despaired because we don't have Cox here or any company trying to be like Cox. Kinda pisses me off.

    Running with Time Warner Cables 50mb package. Still waiting on the 100mb package to reach my area so I can upgrade even further. Hurry up with the Fiber Optics already, I needs the speed. Oh, and if anyone is curios why the DL and UL are low it's due to my family watching Netflix and web-browsing during the time of taking the speed test. Hate it when others hog up all the bandwidth.​

    Thank you, although Fiber Optic is still likely years away from reaching my area. It's slowly working it's way to me though. Problem will be paying for the cost to lay the lines. That stuff isn't cheap. Nonetheless it's worth the price. If there was a way I could afford a T1 line I'd do that. Wouldn't matter how many user's I had hogging bandwidth. Sadly I can't afford to pay a minimum of like $200 a month for the greatness that is T1. Back when I was in high school that's what we had and it rocked. If we weren't running solid 105Mbps download with nearly 60Mbps upload it meant everyone in the whole school was surfing the webs.

    Also, if we ever get to where there is a 300MBps package for civilians I'll jump all over that provided it doesn't break the bank :p
