I've had one time with 3 download windows each with the speed of 71kBps, but only once. Most of the time 2x40kBps is the best. Single download sometimes can be over 70kBps.

KB, not kbps, otherwise it's even worse than dial-up, and I dont think you can stand it.

It is about 200K-300KBps within North America.

you are wrong, Bps is equal to bps:bit per second.
-wins(wins);
2001-3-22(#35963@0)
Bps=Bytes per second; bps=bits per second
1Byte=8bits for pure data; while tranfering, add 1~2 bits for error control
So, there are 10 times difference between Bps and bps.

In asynchronous transfer, the transfer speed is bit-oriented:BPS=bps=Bps. There is no sense for byte per second. However ,you calculation is partially right .

For example, if the transfer protocol is 7bits data, no parity check bit, sending 1 byte will occupy 9 bits(ncluding 1 start bit and 1 stop bit)
agree with you.

And my company is the world's largest ADSL provider, so I thought I am quite familiar with the communication principle.

Hi, I tested both under win98, if Bytes, it's shown as KB/second; if bit, it's shown as kbps. hehe

在North America 我这里的速度最高也就120多K （FlashGet) DSL的速度不是说与家里和BELL WORLD的距离有关么

possible. mine was usually ~500kbps, sometimes 700kbps, and last weekend it was 999kbps. But last night it was only 100kbps when connecting to etang.

by the way, I believe one of Bell's operating center is within 100m to my home.

poor you. my machine's highest speed is 999kbps, and I am using two machines hooked with dsl line by a hub at home.

My test: I just tried to d/l a 36MBytes file, the highest speed was 589kbps. But I feel sympatico is kinda unstable from last night, especially when I was using oicq. what I want to say is that the 'sending message' often got frozen for a while

yes^-^ and I am using that path file mentioned to you earlier today.

patch, not path, blush, hands too tired after washing some clothes, hehe.

Do you guys want to try this patch? http://www.speedguide.net/index.shtml, I believe it increased the speed at leat 10kBytes/s on my machine.

my bandwidth is always 1.2Mbps when I download a file from microsoft, why?

it take me 5'20'' to gt the whole file.
maybe your registry setting is slightly different? I tried, at11:40pm EST,
it's 80+KB/second for me.

I think we are talking about the different things

1.2Mbps is from the access manager, try it
hehe, I think you don't know what I am talking about. What do you think access manager is? hehe.

For your information, EVERYBODY is using access manager if the service is HSE from sympatico.
