100 mbps internet speed

[varun706]

A few days ago during heavy rains and lightning, my SMPS got fried and I had to go to the nearest Cyber cafe to check my mails. There when I checked the internet speed
I was surprised to see 100 mbps speed. I thought this was some sort of a joke that 100 mbps internet connection would be available in India esp. in a remote area.
Is this type of speed real or am I duped?? If so I am surly going to download all my fav games

All I can say is that you should try downloading something, and find out! A good download to try would be a torrent of a popular linux iso. This gets around the limitations you'd see going from a remote location to servers which are possibly overseas.

Are you looking at the Network Connection Properties window? If so, that's telling you the speed of the LAN adapter, not your internet download speed. To check your actual download speed, you will need to go to a site like SpeedTest.net.

Good point. I wonder how many speedtest.net servers there are in India?

Not sure.... but they don't have to be in India... they can be in another nation nearby and still give accurate results. I use speedtest.net servers in the States all the time...

Fine!!!
I test my internet speed test, through this site http://www.ip-details.com/internet-speed-test/
It provides the best results for the speed test and also i check my speed test before and after of the downloading process!!!!!!
