Netfirms blows major vomit chunks.

Seriously, that 100mb D/L was peaking at 76k. I've had them hosting sites in the past. If you do several big file transfers in a weeks period, they'll ask you to upgrade service to to thier "Administrative burden."

That means anything that cuases them to monitor/adjust/compensate for is a burden. Please upgrade to a non-shared plan.

Oh, and did I mention slow servers?
Oh, and no adult / offensive content. (Not even bikini's)

No thanks, I'll stick with my 300k d/l

I tried it 3 more times since my original post. As I said before, that service sucks. It's not like I have a slow connection from work here, multiple T1's and shit. Maybe burstable from home on cable would be faster, but not that much.

Oh and to clarify there amigo ... 76kb/s is not far form your 100kb/s speed.
To you and me that only .25 meg a second off.

But you did know that 1mb/s is the same as 100kb/s right?

kthxwhateverthefuck

I got a 5 star connection from Testmy.net at work and my download speed from NetFirm was like 130k on average (which I think is great for only paying 10 fucking dollars for a whole year), so I doubt that the testmy.net speeds have very much relation at all.
