Pretty consistent to me. -- No, I didn't. Honest... I ran out of gas. I... I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake.......
reply to LastDon now do those tests 10000 times and come back with an average.... once is not enough so many variables to do with it and ill say it IE = NO chrome mostly and firefox some times. thats my use habits i have my own browser for some stuff
reply to LastDon I got an identical 15 ms. with both Chrome and Firefox tested twice. And a ridiculous 5 ms. tested twice with IE9. That result is nonsense. That's over WiFi. I wonder if Speedtest.net is "altering" their ping times in a deal with Microsoft. More likely just a Java error of some kind in IE9. Who knows?
If I use the Rogers test page, I get 34 ms. with Firefox and 11 ms. with IE9.
Weird. -- Any claim that the root of a problem is simple should be treated the same as a claim that the root of a problem is Bigfoot. Simplicity and Bigfoot are found in the real world with about the same frequency. David Wong
reply to LastDon Oh man. Can you just use the ping command for latency? There's no need for speedtest for something as fundamental as ping. It's Flash. Shouldn't expect much consistency...
