New ISP, new speeds

[Jomapil]

Hello, everyone.

The contract with my present ISP specifies a download speed of 24 Mbps but actually my speed is a miserable 5 or 6 Mbps.

This week I'll change to another ISP ( Net fiber ). The future speed is 50 Mbps and they guarantee me the speed greater than 45 Mbps. I know my download speed also depends from the speed of my uploaders. But, anyway, I think that the torrents with many seeds and peers my speed will be really 6 or 7 times more than before accordingly the table of Switeck.

Is this true?

Thanks and cheers.

Wait till you have the line and then give it a proper speed testing

[Switeck]

Just because you get a line that's a LOT faster...doesn't mean others have.

So don't be surprised if even on very busy torrents your speeds are only about 2-4 times faster instead of 5+ times faster.

Is your upload also increasing from around 0.5-1 megabit/sec to 50 megabit/sec?

No, Switeck.

" Officially ", upload speed is 1 Mbps today and afterwards go up to 3 Mbps. As in the practice I have actually ~~750 kbps, in the future, probably I will have 2.25 Mbps.

Good evening.

Sad to hear, I was hoping your upload would be a lot faster than that after going to fiber optic.

My Cable ISP offers a 5 megabit/sec upload (business only) cable line here. That's not even its fancy 50/10 service it offers in other parts of the country. I can't justify the price difference of the faster line, so I only have the 6/1 service.
