Bytes, not bits. I have two ISPs, Comcast & Verizon. I needed the
redundancy as Comcast for a long time was very unreliable. It's been
better in the last year. That said Comcast speeds vary a lot based on
what I suppose my neighbors are doing as cable modem is a shared
interface. The Verizon 3Mbps service speeds are pretty constant.
Measured this morning using Speakeasy's page with San Francisco as the
other end:
http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/
Comcast cable modem - 22.38Mbps download, 4.27Mbps upload
Verizon DSL - 2.89Mbps download, 0.74Mbps upload
In my home I'm 54Mbps wireless to the Comcast router which might
effect things a bit but directly connected to the DSL router. If one
goes down I just change a couple of Ethernet cables and start using
the other. I suspect that if I went to my wife's machine right now I'd
get close to 40Mbps.
In reality I find that _real_ transfers to other Gentoo computers
using rsync typically run around 50% of those numbers averaged over
time.
Point taken about s/S. I didn't know there was an accepted standard to use 's'.
Cheers,
Mark
