    Just connected an ethernet cable to my desktop. I was getting poor speeds before, because the wifi reception in my bedroom (which is where my desktop is) is rather shitty. I actually had to use 2 ethernet cables with a female to female adapter to reach from the router in the living room to my desktop. I was worried that a cable that long wouldn't work, but it did. The difference in speed is significant.

    I use Verison Fios in a Comcast dominated area. I love it.

    However, over 150 mb/s? Damn guys.

    Finally fixed my wifi:

    It was 20 max down and 10 max up. Funniest part - it was a caused by a power adapter wire around one router antenna.

    I'll admit that I'm playing FFXIV (or trying to with lots of lag) and am on WiFi whilst doing a speed test, but since speed tests always give me theoretical results that my connection never even gets close to, even on ethernet, I figured it was fair game. Anyway, the most important part is the ping. And this is just local ping. If I try pinging North America, for example (where the FFXIV servers are, incidentally), it's insane. This test is actually pretty much correct, though. It SHOULD be faster, but it isn't. I live barely 10 minutes out of a major town (or city, as they apparently think it is now), and all we have is one exchange for hundreds of people, with no fibre coming in the foreseeable future (a "maybe" for fibre in five years time. MAYBE).

    1000mbps fiber baby!

    Unfortunately, I'm sharing my internet with the other people in my apartment complex, so I usually don't get the full 1000mbps (and my upload and download speeds seem to be all over the place when I do a Speedtest.net test). Still, Steam can download 1.5GB games in like a minute, so I can't complain. Especially coming from Australia, where we have some of the world's worst internet, this is freakin' amazing! And I pay about the same price as I was paying for 2mbps ADSL in Australia!

    100Mbit/s is enough for most stuff, gigabit, even shared with other people is more than enough for anything, but... who the hell got 10Gbit/s here?!!!

    Not too bad for a Note 3 and an Asus 802.11ac router...

    Not too bad, meets my needs. Wish the upload were faster though for youtube videos.

    Guys, guys, I managed to get a 20ms ping now and then, and more importantly, a theoretical 6mbps downstream! I'm living the dream.
