What's your Internet Speed?

[CountMike]

Well your ISP must have a site or you can just ping some fast place like Google.
If you open command prompt and type "ping www.google.com" (no quotes) it will bring you to Google site right thru your ISP's router.
Same could do using tracert Google and it will give you where it goes thru and with which timings.

A third of a second is pretty quick.
Consider the complexity of the internet.
Consider how complex computers are.

For someone in India or the USA to get responses in fractions of a second is magic.
We live in a Brave New World.

When watching videos it is best to close all other tabs or windows.

Okay. I thought the problem was with IE11, cos I don't have any other connection or systems to check it out & i don't like chrome- too much resource hogging.
The real culprit is data connection - too sad

This is crazy. If I ping Google, no problem. If I try to ping my ISP, all packets lost.

I used 9 or 10 speedtests.

There is a big difference when I disconnect from my VPN service.
But I use the VPN service to watch videos on YouTube.
I leave it shut off until I encounter, "this video is not available in your country".
Then I connect to Hong Kong or Germany or where ever to get the video to play.

This really cuts down on my speeds.

Way to slow. I pay for 3 mb, but I usual get around 4.5 mb. There is not many options where I live since it is a small town in the middle of nowhere.
