Bell Sympatico Speed Test.

said by ixiom See Profile :

Yep, those are good speeds. Thing is, if you don't P2P or game or really download anything, the speed is mostly wasted. You'll get your webpages lightning fast though
Exactly. I've just never been into the habit of playing onlines games, P2P, or anything other than surfing/emailing. The speed, though, is fantastic for what I do on the net.

You can test your connection for throttling here:

»broadband.mpi-sws.mpg.de/transpa···est.php?

There are legitimate uses for P2P and just because you don't use it now doesn't mean you won't in the future. I don't play on-line games either and I seldom use P2P, but I am still completely against any form of throttling.

I would suggest running the test later in the evening to ensure Bell's throttling is in effect, it doesn't always start at 4pm.

Thanks! I'll do this. What time would you suggest? I completely agree with you about the throttling, it's not fair play. I don't completely understand this throttling business only because I don't fall into that category.

I suggest anytime after 7pm.
