I just replaced my AT&T DSL with Comcast. This is the result of my speed test (with an Airport router):

Last Result:
Download Speed: 8300 kbps (1037.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 3033 kbps (379.1 KB/sec transfer rate)


Is that good?

    I was using AT&T but I kept getting my butt kicked on COD4 online. Played today with Comcast and won.:)I guess it would be faster if I hooked it up directly instead of wireless but I think it's ok now.

    If you're on a cable modem, the number of users in your area can affect your speed. I should try it again later tonight.

    Mine was 7.2M down and 365k up. Soooooo....
    Is my linksys wrt54g router the choke point? Should I go direct to the modem?

    I guess I did pretty well being that the distance to the nearest server to test was 350 miles away

    yeah its pretty nice, I had the whole house setup with it, pretty nice. I run a switch in the theater room, awesome for gaming, and the connection never slows down when gaming, downloading on the pcs etc.

    I have comcast as well, but apparently they are woefully inadequate in the midwest. (Must be all the bandwith goes to the coasts....)

    This is from Chicago (about 100 miles apparently)

    Interesting to see what distance does to the test. Here is from California (1,800 miles)

    And here is from Russia (5,500 miles)
