Re: Internet Speed and Latency in Lebanon

I guess I'm one of the few that have noticed no improvement at all whatsoever.  In fact, it seems it is getting worse.  I think it depends a lot more on the central rather than the ISP.

i wasn't "browsing" , but i was trying to stream some youtube , it took about 4 minutes to stream 20 seconds if that's what you mean

from my phone

I get higher pings on it for whatever reason--upload speed is actually greater than advertised

Re: Internet Speed and Latency in Lebanon

If you have 512k plan then your upload should be 128k but i have the same plan yet never reached more than 90k in upload. About 3 days ago i was testing my internet as usual but after midnight and my upload was over 200k, which how it should be after 8 pm because the connection speeds double.

Re: Internet Speed and Latency in Lebanon

The "nice" speeds (high upload) are at AUB
The "bad" ones are at home, supposed to be 512k

- Tests were done with my mobile phone

Re: Internet Speed and Latency in Lebanon

Peter I never got this high speed, 2.5 Mbps MAX with a file download, just once, in SRB labs near the network servers. You got 4 Mbps on your laptop ! Can it be a sign they are actually benefiting from the IMEWE ?

Note: "Faster then 99% of LB". Not so hard to believe !

nah it was like that from before. you can get speeds of up to 10 Mbps in the morning like 6 am and at around 8 pm sundays. and somewhat 5 Mbps in the afternoon if you are really lucky

Bilal, i think it is the CADMOS one, because of this node (.....paris1.level3.net)

Re: Internet Speed and Latency in Lebanon

There's like an extra 41ms delay just for the first hop between my 512K DSL and your HDSL Bilal.

I must say I am surprised...

LooL, BTW this is at the company I work.

I will test on my Ogero 512 DSL connection when I get back to home.

Re: Internet Speed and Latency in Lebanon

I have to admit, I have noticed a 20%~30% improvement in my ping in online games. I can use aimbot hack for the first time!(previously it didn't work because the high ping meant that other players where in a different position than where I'm seeing them)
I'm with Ogero btw.

Have fun cheating, dude!  Previously you used to try to shoot them, now why bother?

I get that too--whenever I reboot my modem, I go to http://www.wunderground.com/ .  If it doesn't tell me I am in Beirut, I keep rebooting until I do.  I find that my connections on beyond the network america are not very good.

One thing I haven't tried though (due to obvious crappy speeds)) is see if I can play UK specific content like on the Ibbc player.  If that happens, I would try to keep my IP address there to play the content.  It would not be as good as Hulu, but it's a start and no proxy is needed.
