Monkey Proof Posted December 18, 2006 Posted December 18, 2006 Ha I don't feel so bad now with my slow connection at home. Quote
Administrator Tarun Posted December 19, 2006 Administrator Posted December 19, 2006 You're probably behind a firewall on a proxy where the Internet has the bandwidth capped for each node that has student access. Quote
Eldmannen Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Wow, what a sucky school, thats like worse than dial-up speed. When you post an image on the web, use JPEG, PNG or GIF, don't use BMP because BMP does not have built-in compression, so its not suitable for the web. I downloaded OpenOffice.org 2.1 from BitTorrent couple days ago, speed was 750 kbyte/s. :happybday: Quote
corjello Posted December 20, 2006 Author Posted December 20, 2006 yea, but thats bittorrent... of course its going to be fast. you cant logically compare a torrent to a normal single server download. It just doesnt work like that. )corjello( Quote
