No, they have either a dedicated server or shared hosting account w/ each of these companies. They just log-into the server, type a command to download the file and you've got it. mkaufman 05-08-2002, 05:56 PM VDI 17:28:57 (2.31 MB/s) - `testfile' saved [73416704/73416704] The Prohacker 05-08-2002, 06:12 PM Originally posted by HRBrendan Can you give it another go? someone was just pushing 21mbit in porn off a shared account :) -Brendan From nac: 18:02:47 (944.72 KB/s) - `testfile' saved [73416704/73416704] Not that much better... sorry.... alpha 05-08-2002, 06:29 PM 251kb/s on average from RoadRunner in NC :) Tim Greer 05-08-2002, 06:44 PM [WHT screwed up while I was trying to post -- I didn't think it'd have gone through the first time].

Test File (http://host27.hrwebservices.net/testfile) -Brendan ~105 kbps (1.5 mpbs cable modem connection) ~40 kpbs (rackshack -- usually it's about ~500 - ~1.5 kbps, but this is RS) ~3.26 mpbs (Site5) ~3.05 mpbs (webreseller) ~590.82 KB/s average (peer1) (The cable modem is my own connection, it is usually faster. The rackshack, webreseller and peer1 servers are some people's server's I have access to. Site5 is a dedicated server of mine). I have access to other data centers, but some of the people above have already posted about them, and this is a pretty good average anyway. Tim Greer 05-08-2002, 06:57 PM Hmm, must be the routing for some of these servers. I.e., I usually find FTP to netscape is pretty fast.
