by mhenry » Tue 20 Oct, 2009 10:40 pm
i have broadband, they promised me that they give 1 mbps speed, that s the highest in our country for a home user. But recently for a week, i dont get things done faster as i expect it was very slow, for that reason i deleted the old operating system and installed a new operating system , but still the problem is going on, kindly tell how to find the speed of my broadband, is there any tool available to download please help me out.

You should check out http://www.speedtest.net. They'll tell you your download and your upload speeds.

I'm not sure. You could google it and find a good program probably.

There are some bandwidth meters out there, but I have not used any of them. Comcast is testing an online bandwidth meter in one of its markets in the U.S. that allows the users in that market to check their monthly bandwidth usage while online.
When I had cable Internet installed in 2001 (by a predecessor of Comcast), the download speed back then was 1Mbps and compared to a 56Kbps dialup modem, 1Mbps was fast back then. Today, Comcast offers different speeds, the service I have is 12Mbps.
