I can get about 75 for download in the middle of the night but I can't even approach those upload speeds. We don't even have that available as Buisness class
I average 25 down and 3 up.
Just for kicks I tried it with a proxy from a server in the Netherlands, and got .59 down and 1.11 up. I usually travel the Net with a proxy from some foreign server, so that probably reflects the speed I am used to having. Haiti's speed doesn't seem so bad!
Using Fios and paying for an intermediate residential tier, i average 24M down and much lower up. But it is more than sufficient to stream HDX movies on VuDu. When I had Cablevision as a service provider, I was paying for twice the bandwidth i have now and i had constant buffering problems, partly due to the fact that the bandwidth was 'shared' by others on the same street and partly because they claim bandwidth using static tests, and not consistent demands made by something like an 85 minute long movie. When I worked with the techs at the streaming service they could see bandwidth drops way below the norm which, while lasting briefly, were sufficient to throw the stream into a tizzy. So, I'd place stability of the signal pretty high on my list of priorities, apart from bandwidth claims made by providers. Nonetheless, some of the speedtest results here are pretty impressive. I hope they have fios in Austin.
No I think they still use smoke signals down there
