i got no proof cause it wasn't my comp but i have seen 650kb/sec on optus

sure buddy

Yeah I have seen 600+ on optus to.It's not that common though from what I have seen.

off the optus@home cache i guess it'd be possible

uh no not off cache
optus ppl use flash get download from www.cfgn.net
see what happens

what speeds would you see if it were off the cache ?

I will share with you an account of the fateful day I got my most amazing transfer rate ever...

'Twas a sunny day in the summer of '99 and I decided to download a game patch from a place called www.qgl.org. As soon as I clicked 'save' I was agog with the blistering speed my OEM 56k modem was achieving.

A massive 7k was being downloaded every second!

Something which I previously thought impossible on my Powerup Unlimited plan.

I will never forget that day. I still hold hope to the thought of my BPA connection reaching the same heights.

hahaahah powerup rocked!

heh, i can get several meg/sec

my BPA hit 118k/sec briefly, prolly an error.

But when its quick, it hovers around 64k/sec, which is good enough for me.

pwhoar that means an optus@home user can breach their AUP in just over 12 minutes

on bpa it would take over 4 hours

optus@home rox...

I have optus cable.. and im getting 800kb +

using tweaks and stuff.. can get it from www.speedcorp.net - only for win2k :p

win2k rox doesnt it?

I know a guy in Melbourne who was downloading from QGL's FTP server @ 600 -650Kbs no bull! Hes using BPA 512/128 win2k with all the tweaks, I think hes nearly the only one on that particular node too. wooohoo cable to die for..

those win2k "tweaks" rok

fastest ive seen is 1.16MB/sec

only one ive taken a screenie of is 800odd k in 1 sec :(

there we go :)

rad stuff.. heh

I told ya optus@home rox...

Wart that pic looks so haX0rd

why does windows think its going to take 8 secs to download 20k at 1.45MB/sec ?

Hey Tiapan.
I saw you use an optus USB 10/100 ethernet adapter last QGL...
Get rid of it and use an internal network card, try to find the fastest card possible...
The USB side of your adaptor slows down your transfer rate.. :)
