Why you ask? Because im fed up with this crap. England: We spend all of our money on crap things like, building tunnels everywhere when a road around a hill would be X10 as cheap. Building roads that no body uses because there is others ones that are quicker. I download (on a good day) at 200Kb/s. Netherlands: Small country, shit loads of money and quick internet. 'Nuff said. Now, I dont know what you gays ( ) download at but its annoying
Just come over here m8. And download anything you like with 50Mbit or higher :badgrin: I m almost downloading HD ready or Full HD stuff. And when i really wanne see it then i will download a dvd of it
Well im not a big person on internet speed and how it works but basically: There is 2 exchange gates near me, both about 3 miles away, so I am at the very end of them. Now, im on a package, up to 8Mb/s which is like the fastest you can get in england... and I get 1mb/s and download at 200kb/s. My girlfriend lives basically on top of on of the exchanges, and she downloads at 300kb/s and gets like 2mb/s from speedtest. So yeah, internet in england is just ADSL? not fibre wire...
First off your problem is the distance between you and your exchange gates. After 1 km adsl or adsl2 will lost his high speed . And their isnt any solution for it than take a other connection like Cable or fiber but when their isnt any it sucks hard And your GF got also a 8Mbit connection or not because here speed? And dont have the uk cable with doc2 or doc3 But i was looking for you and their is also a 50mbit connection in the uk http://www.cable.co.uk/providers/virgin ... and-phone/ Dont know of their also avalble for you but i can tray
Yep the distance is the main problem. Yeah, she can get 8Mb/s but the problem is, England doesnt have the money to upgrade to cable =/ They did try it in one city, and it cost a shit load. So no one wants to do it for the whole country. Sucks
That sucks m8. Just come to the Netherlands m8 and take your gf with you and enjoy our internet connections
At first I thought that this topic was about some gay business... but on-topic---> Just to rub it on your face: I live in the countryside (=in the middle of woods) in Finland a pretty long way from the nearest "exchange gate" or whatever it's called. I have a pretty cheap (= the third fastest my provider has to offer) connection and my numbers look like this--> Maybe the service providers in the UK are just pissing in their customers' eyes...
man that's got to suck my speed according to the test: P.S.: I live in the same town as Killvion, quite a difference! :lol:
you dont want to come to holland, -9/10th of the showbizz is dominated by people that express their gayness a little to mutch you know? -we have a dumb ass party called the pvda which sucks just SO hard! -we have killvion -the goverment wants to save on everything! and .... thats all i can think off!!! aaah who am i kidding! the netherlands rule! but it would be more sucky if you joined us here so please... just stay on your side of the creek
Invalid point here: -the goverment wants to save on everything! Yes, but the spend on the important things Lol, shurup, i'd fail with the language though, im assuming you all know english?
This month KPN moved up his internet speed 3Mbit to 8Mbit (finally), and this is what I get: hmmm....
mmm I thought Belgium had some crappy overprized internet, not that bad after all. And we dont even have a test server here, Amsterdam is the closest. W're a Fart of a country big anyway so doenst really matter.
