speedtest.net - Internet speed test benchy

[simon]

So seeing as how Diablo 3 will need perma ic and people are worried about latency etc I was taking a look in the Diablo forums. While a lot of those "foreigners" with amazing internet have nice computers their posted internet connection speeds don't seem to be that high.

I found speedtest.net and gave it a whirl at work, and just want to know what everybody else's scores are. Mine, here at work is
ping: 121 ms
download speed: 4.71 mb/s
upload speed: 0.52 mb/s

So yeah run the benchy and post some results

Indeed, rather quick. Just bear in mind that the speedtest there is done to a server at the same datacentre, a test to Joburg reaches similar speeds to what Tanka's speedtest at Wits reflects, although sometimes a bit faster.
