Note your transfer rate after about 30 seconds. Then cancel the download.

Post the URL for the New Tweak Test. For the TWO Speakeasy Tests, Copy and Paste the speed results from those tests and note the speed from the FTP download test.

Try this for a few days and see how it goes.

seems to be doing well for now thanks a lot for the response i just thought it was strange

ok about the question you asked before I have a different answer lol. Apparently we must have boost here now for all roadrunner speed tiers just seen a commerical for time warner saying that its free with roadrunner thats the only explanation. Just thought i would let u know I found that out.. thanks for ur help.

What do they estimate the speed for Boost?

Not sure but it starts out at 300 kb/s and goes down from there when i start a download thats all i know i havent called and asked anything I need to tho.

Post a Tweak Test; the other ones here are not online anymore.
