I'm enjoying, um, fast internet.

For the record, that is over 24 megabits/sec

Oh the joys of ultra fast cable. Hell, we have a little home network set up with a desktop and two laptops, connected wireless, hooked up to a cable connection... we can all surf the net and download off Kazaa *at the same time* and it doesn't slow down a single byte.

I call bluff. Coaxial can not physically reach 24mbit, it maxes out at 10mbit.

Not a bluff, but it was under ideal circumstances. I had actually taken that pic a few days before i saw this thread, because its the fastest I have gotten in a long time. It is very hard to find servers that will pump many megabits to a single client. I took this pic today, certainly not as fast as my previous pic, but still quite fast. I have 3 downloads running and as you can see, i have let it download several megabytes before taking the pic, to prove it is sustained.

The fastest I have ever achieved is documented here:
