Weaver, you don't have to center your attention on the time it takes but the download speed (KiB/MiB per second). As I said, using Oracle servers I can get up to 10 MiB/s which is the best number I have ever got. > I understand also, that many can't get these speeds, but when you are > paying for 100MB/s and not even getting ADSL1 speeds, the ethic bothers > me. That's a common feeling from users with high speed links, but there is not much we can do, simply put: todays Internet is not prepared for providing that speeds but in counted sites/hosts :-( Anyway, remember that you are paying for 100 Mbps that is around 12 MiB/s. > I've worked for myself, predominantly, since the age of 17 and no client > would ever be able to say that they got short-changed by me.

Can you please provide the results of this speed test? http://www.speedtest.net/ I get: Ping: 3 ms Download: 86.09 Mbps Upload: 9.96 Mbps Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
