Re: Confirmed
And here we are....
Here's the first link, to my space:

For some reason I'm having problems getting the images to show up in anything but Safari/WebKit and IE. Most likely something to do with iWeb.
Firefox users can use this naked link, just an index of the files (in numerical order).

There's an image of the state of my Dock (Taskbar) to show what applications I had open during the tests. You'll notice Transmission (red gear shifter), my torrent client, is closed. For those not aware, the open apps were, Finder (equivalent of Windows Explorer/File Manager), iTunes, Mail.app, Firefox, Adium (IM client), Terminal, Notepad, and Grab (the screencap app). Nothing was using the internet aside from my machine doing IM, email, and those 2 downloads.
You can also see that I opted to include my menu-meter bandwidth meter in all but the 1st image. This meter monitors the amount of bandwidth being used by my Ethernet port on my Mac Mini to the cable modem. I figured I'd better include it in the rest of the images so everyone could see what kinds of speeds I was getting as a whole. 1Mb x 256k users would normally see the meter display around 130KB/s x 30KB/s, respectively, during times the connection is at its peak. We can tell that this is certainly not the case the majority of the time here.
For what it's worth, one of those downloads stalled with "1 Minute Remaining" after over 2hrs of downloading. The other is stalled with "40mins" remaing. |
