Re: OOL FTP speed test is BULLSHIT
I applied my famous "Howie's RWIN speed tweak".... 
Actually, Shark is correct .... The highest speeds you'll ever see on OOL are about 1.08-1.11 mB/s. (Motorolas may show higher "spikes", but those are an anomaly unique to that MODEM and not your actual download speeds.)

You can make it REAL fast... setup your machine so it's an FTP server, edit the HOSTS file so ftp1.optonline.net is 127.0.0.1 and get TEST64 off your hard drive.
Are you saying that is what I did GeekNJ?

I can not believe this even went past the First page and was not squashed!!!! During my wonderful time on OOL I too did the tests.
OOL FTP test 1.02 MB / Sec (based on 1024 as in File size)
NYC.Speakeasy.net : 8111 kbps Down and 895 kbps up (based on rounded Transfer rate of 1000)
lets do some quick math
1.02 MB /sec translates into 8355.84 kbps by file size yet 8160 kbps in transfer rate (according to the powers that be who came up with the rounding measure). That is not bad when dealing with battle of FTP vs Java speed tests
Look~~> 8111 vs 8160
So quit barking up the wrong tree and try to understand the difference of
-MB/Sec vs Mbps
-KB/Sec vs Kbps
Or should I say HD File Size VS Network Transfer Rate
Microsoft site = 998 KB/Sec! screaming downloads period. I was even able to achieve a 700 KB/ Sec download from File Planet for the Americas Army Demo (now that is scary) Also if you use a line monitoring program like NetStat Live you can display the results in File size or Network transfer rate.

Why let rank lead, when ability can do it better!

Unless I calculated incorrectly, 1.2MB == 9830kb so it's not technically over the 10/1 cap. But that's need here nor there.
Enjoy the speed!

Actually it did work fine with Download Accelerator. I was just going to end this thread. Thanks a lot Irish Shark, GeekNJ, Quik, Jefe, and Defman. |

I have DU meter on , The speed was jumping between 1050 - 1170. Even if it wasn't that fast it was 1MB for sure.
That is 8602 - 9585 in Speakeasy terms. What more do you want?

I got 545 before I canned it. Was quick using a download accelerator? Or just 4 DL's of the same file?
-----------------------------
I really think that this has gone on for long enough, as Josh said. We (I) have tried everything that we know to up the speed outside of OOL Land. You are fine. get a grip and move on.

Quik gets 443kb/sec on the AOL download.
I found out that me and Quik get speeds of 300 +MB/sec when download one file from a certain site, but when download 4 of the same files at a time speed goes up to 1.2MB/sec. Is there a way to tweak so one file can be downloaded at 1.2MB/sec
Go here ----> »usa.bmwfilms.com/clap.asp?templa···assreg=Y
download one of the movies. Tell me your speed (that's what we used)
