ive seen too many posts like this, download above 10 Mbps and upload around 1 Mbps from school´s, offices with fat fiberoptic connections.

No offence CA3LE but i think the upload test is very inaccurate for these types of connections.

Dunno how other uploadtests works, but my guess is that server flowcontrol is diffrent compared to yours. I think the server keep sending/Recive and dosent wait for acknowledge packets during the test.

In Windows XP, 2000 that registry setting for send side is Defult Send window and Defult recive window

I dont know... I upload on the internet at about 140ish and my upload tests at 1.2Mbps..  If you figure in the overhead is should put me right around the 152 converted..  I have no idea what type of connection I have here at Purdue.. but it is fast.. Rolling Eyes

I dont think there is any problem with the upload test. I could get 250 before my cable turned to shat.

A T1 is about tenth of that download.  It's about equal to the upload, however...

I would imagine that upload sorta sucks due to throttling/other users.  I would imagine that a line that fast is some sort of a symetrical fibre line.  This means that the download and upload speed would be the same.  Most likely the administration doesn't want large volumes of data to be uploaded, or possibly other users are utilizing more uploading than downloading.  Strange, but possible.

I always here about T-1's and i know they are pretty fast. I'm a senior right now so I'm visiting colleges and stuff. When i went to "Red Letter Day" at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln they were talking about advantages of living in the dorms and stuff. He said each room has two internet hook ups and they have a T-1 connection. Right now im thinking he might have been wrong because it really doesn't seem like a big campus (10,000 students) like that can run on only 1.544 MB/s. My bro lives in the dorms there and he said the internet isn't slow, but i dunno if its fast because he isn't really an internet junkie like myself  wink . Do you guys think they might actually have like a T-2 or T-3?

ok here is how it works.. they tell you that because they know that it is fast.. so they think that it is T1.. but really it is ethernet that is connected to a fat backbone.. I run normally 6000-8000Kbps download and about 1.2-1.5 upload..   I am regulated to 3 gigs of up and 3 gig of down each day..   My guess is that Purdue is on some kind of OC line..
