Connection speed
Sep. 21st, 2005 09:57 pmSo, when I try to download stuff, I seem to be getting a 34.5 kbytes/s download speed.
From my parent's connection, they're getting just under 50 kbytes/s. But when I go to network information in their control panel, it claims the speed is 100 mbps.
It's a cable modem, from cogeco, that connects to my Linksys wireless and ethernet router, and from there I use wireless and my parents connect to the router with an ethernet cable.
Anyone know what gives? Could it be my router, or is Cogeco cheating us?
Edit Looks like, assuming that we are paying for Cogeco Lite, we are in fact getting what we paid for. In other words, not bloody much.
