Speakeasy refuses to see passed 6 megs, bandwidth siomething or nother, says 3 megs, dslreports says 2-3 megs..

Wish i knew of an uncapped site with FILES to download.. :paranoid: Not torrents...

http://www.digi.no has a nice Java tester. Got up to 11 from where I am, but if you're US, it's probably not gonna give you top speeds (though I don't know where you are..)

http://www.digi.no/php/art.php?id=93796 Just scroll down to "Surfometeret" and push the button.

You have 9 mb a second? Or do you mean 900 kb/s.

download itunes, it's usually uncapped. I took it down at 800K last night. Try it or I'll post that image of you crying, nutsack jammed 90% of the way in your standup arcade-game coin receptacle, fuck-face.

Nah, 1.125MB I think. 9/8=1.125, that's 1152KiBps (9Mbit/ps = 9*1024 = 9216Kbit/ps/8 = 1152KiBps/1.125MiBps).
