Click the pyramid that is closest to your location to run the speed test. When the test is done, click the button that says "Copy" next to the "Hyperlink Link" box and paste your reply into this thread.

Was just curious as to what speeds everyong gets in the area.

Here's mine from MetroCast:

Funny that you should mention that...

I've been having some serious issues with getting consistent speed...

The true test of your speed is to check it between 6-11 PM when everyone is home, TV's on, and Internet blazing. The Metrocast guys like to say TV doesn't affect Internet speed, but that's B.S because they all have to flow through the same pipes, and the TV bandwidth takes a big share of that pipe, especially the HD stuff...

My 6 megabit connection is dropping down to barely 1 megabit during that time...

But then this is even more bazaar. This site reports a good connection during problem times?
