ask him to test on a bandwidth testing site located in korea. then ask him to test here to see how well his speed holds up over the pacific.

That makes no sense.  The number of people on in one geographical unit has nothing to do with the speed of the networks.  It's the routing, and bandwidth available.  It's more like, the more networks cram users onto the same routing, the less available bandwidth there is.

Also, how about NYC?  They've got OOL 10000/1000 for $45 and that is one of the most denesely packed geographical areas in the us.

Thats nice Smile

he probl got a fast dsl connection at home, here in sweden we have dsl up to 26 Mbps down and 1 Mbps up.

20 bucks probl is alot of money in korea, ask him what a average middle class employe earn every month in USD.

These days giganetworks is not very rare, so its probl true hes school is connected to that.

Here in sweden we have a giganetwork for all our universitys, they have a woldrecord with sprintlink in transfer speed.

How about this?

On April 14, 2004, SUNET transferred around 840 Gigabytes of data in less than 30 minutes, using a single TCP stream between one host at the Luleå University of Technology (LTU) in Sweden (close to the Arctic circle), and one host connected to a Sprint PoP in San Jose, CA, USA.

Meh, my ISP has a higher average speed than OOL users right now.
