Administrator Tarun Posted December 19, 2006 Administrator Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldmannen Posted December 20, 2006 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corjello Posted December 20, 2006 Author Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
