Are you on 512kbps?
Here is my latest test, it's only getting slower and slower
When I had my old router, (Netgear) my speed was on average 4 times faster than this. I managed to get 20,000kbps and slightly over. But my new (to me) but old router, D-Link 504T GenII is giving me less speed. Although, I still am running the NetGear firmware and it's working. I haven't got the disc with the firmware for the D-Link but would it help the speed in any way?

I'm not sure, i'm on a Billion 10mbps ADSL2+ and i am on a 512kbps connection.
🤬
I hate you Leon.
I tried a few other servers:
I don't know how i got double speed from 100 times as far away on a 512k conection:
Hell, London was pretty fast aswell:
- 4,387
- Lisboa
This is what I have: 👍
(18Mb Downloads and 1Mb Upload)
And because of my router, this is what I get: 👎
Thank God, I don't have trafic limits. Unlimited Downloads and Uploads...yeeeaaahh.
And a funny fact is that in the server most close to me (Lisbon), I get less speed than one a bit far away (Barcelona), where I get better speed.

Just so I can beat you Leon

I was using dial-up for years. If i needed something faster or more complex, i could always just hop on a computer at work or at a friend's house. Nowadays, however, i got cable/broadband, which absolutely ROCKS.

Free connection upgrade from 4 to 10mb a few hours ago. Still can't host a stable full COD4 game. But what doesn't make sense is my friend with 2 meg and 300k upload can host one fine. I suppose my router must be at fault here. I know a few other computers are connected to the network but even when they're not being used my host isn't 100% stable.

I may soon be blessed with the gift of wireless DSL broadband. Last Tuesday on what we thought would be Tropical Storm Edouard's wrath, my brother tried to get a broadband deal started here. Right now, we don't have the whole network set up with our Netgear WGR614 Wireless-G router. I may need to get one of those Netgear USB adapters so I can enjoy high-speed access (or I may take my chances installing another PCI card, only this one for my wireless access). What was my brother's room will be where the Wireless-G router will be at. I'm next door from my brother's room. So I may get to be part of the Broadband family for the first time instead of relying on going to school and using their systems (while learning, of course).
I may come back and update this depending upon what happens the next few days. We have the hardware, just not truly ready to have a broadband-enabled WiFi house yet. For now, I'm still doing the dial-up.

Not bad for a 12meg connection over wireless on a slow as heck laptop.

Not bad for rural Australia in a town where DSL wasn't even available until recently...
EDIT: 714? That's heaps fast, mine's normally only at like 500.
