Re: Speed is bad again in WNY (2:45pm)

"I can't think of any other industry that could get away with a disclaimer like that."
Speed of an internet connection is subjective. It depends on the test you run, the network path between your machine and the test and the condition of the computer and associated software.
The two separate speeds run from WNY in this thread show speeds of 3900 kb/s. The missing 100 kb/s is due to TCP/IP overhead.
"If I was getting my connection for free like some others here I would have nothing to complain about."
Free? I don't pay for my connection that is true, but it's not free. It's a benefit offered as part of my employment. It was something I took into account when I was in the job market and had two job offers to peruse. Nothings free.
