If he was behind a firewall the AUTH would be 262626 ~~~ and would tell you...

[code:1]
SORRY, this can't be authenticated because the person who tested was behind a firewall or proxy server, testmy.net needs firewalls and proxies down to authenticate that the post referer was in fact testmy.net.
[/code:1]

~~~ so I doubt that was the case... may have been some crazy cache progam or something...  But the only person I have seen pulling speed higher than that was my friend and that was testing server to server ~~ a home connection that fast would be extramly expensive... one day in the future maybe Wink

never really that high Wink ~~~

The usual was just an increase in the upload speed releaseing it to just about match the download speed, when those hacks were availible 90% of modems only had a 10Mbps interface.

16 Mbps... sheeeeeeeit that-is-fast

too bad it's fake
