Looks like Starhub Ultimate reduces their upload speed to their stated 2mbit liao. Used to hit more than 2.5mbit last time.:spin:

Utterly disgusted!!! This is what I'm getting?!?!

My current set-up:

1) SH's MaxOnline ULTIMATE
2) Motorola SB6100i [DOCSIS 3.0] Cable Modem (Just bought!!)
3) Linksys WRT54GC Wireless Router (Just reconnected to (2) & connected to my PC via LAN Cable)
4) Using PC (Pentium C2D) to take the Speedtest...

Now I'm only connected at 10 Mbps [seen from the "Local Area Connection Status" Window] (via LAN) to the Internet, worse than Wireless of 54 Mbps?!?

Is there something wrong with my set-up? Previously able to be connected at 1 Gbps when connecting my Cable Modem to the same PC previously... why the drastic drop now? Anyone can advise? [Thought I should expect at least 100 Mbps if connected to Internet via LAN cable??]
Previously can be connected

[kaiserneb]

Francsis, the 6100 has a 1Gbps port and you connect it to a router that supports up to 100Mbps, obviously you won't get good speeds.

Try hooking up directly to a laptop with a 1G ethernet interface.

Thanks kaiserneb for your reply... If u were to look closely at my post, I do know that I should not be expecting 1 Gbps since I'm using a 100 Mbps wireless router & I'd previously gotten 1 Gbps when I directly connected the 6100 to my PC via LAN...

My concern is more of why I'm only getting 10 Mbps where I thought I should be expecting at least 100 Mbps when I use a 'G' Router... It's like being eaten up 90% of the bandwidth... :s11:

my company using business singnet 512, download is 326 kps and upload is 203, BTW, my house using MOL premium, 12M, but I do not feel that the MOL is 24 time faster than my company internet connection, sometime I feel my company speed is almost as fast as my home one. Is there any different in Business BB and home BB witht the same BB speed?

[zuoom]

that's the latency issue you are experiencing.

pretty normal.

try to download big files like 100MB, and the bigger bandwidth plan will be faster overall. though the initial click might take a little longer.

Did a test on the Network Magic result is 260kps download and 214 upload.. can anyone pls help...

btw, i'm using D-Link router DIR 300 (54mbps)

[alanwoo]

I dont think the test is accurate.. i'm on starhub 2 mbps plan.. can't even surf youtube without lag and I'm getting over 8k download speed..

Hi,

The speedtest.net or speedtest.sg is a Singapore test server thus you will be able to hit 8K download speed, while youtube server likely to be in hosted US. Once the traffic go out to the public internet, Starhub have no control on the network performance.

I think in future, broadband service provider may need to clarify this part, if not, consumer will always misunderstand.

For example: If you sign up a 6Mbps Max online, this is only means from your modem to Starhub network is a 6Mbps line. Starhub have no way to guarantee from your modem to anypart of the world is 6Mbps.

The other speed factor is the server, if the server side limit the connection speed for each user to 1Mbps, then even you have 6Mbps max online, you still get 1Mbps speed.

If you happen to connect to a busy youtube server, you may get slow speed. (** youtube is not just run on a single server, its run on a server farm, although the URL is www.youtube.com but in fact it landed on difference server everytime you access it)

Hope this clarify the speed performance on broadband internet rely on end-to-end (both end) to have the same speed.

Are you using Kaspersky Internet Security or Avira AntiVir Premium? Both of the security suites can affect broadband speed!

ave the same speed.

Correct.
However, you failed to realise something important as well, because youtube videos are hosted on a farm, it has been mirrored to a local google's server.

Yeap. I'm on FTTH (Fibre To The Home).
Theoretically I'm supposed to get 100mbps (Local) and 25/50mbps (International) but seems like I lost more than 20mbps in the local test. Fibre optics are known not to have any interference. Therefore I think the lost bandwidth must've been at the exchange or the test server itself. But still, I'm happy with my speed. :)

You can't sign up for FTTH at the moment. Currently it is on trial. My dad is a Singtel technician so he's chosen to go for the trial. The HD tv channels, phone and internet are all free but we have to fill up feedback form every week to feedback on internet connection, tv quality, phone quality and the efficiency of the technical and helpdesk personnel. So if I feedback that the helpdesk personnel sucks, they're screwed. :s13:

Good eh... :)

Why don't you try refute my claim on Veoh also? :)

Here, let me proof to you CDN does not applies to everything

Most content provider usually get rid of the b/w intensive materials on their site, in the case of video provider, it must be the video itself. For a game publisher, it must be the game setup and patches of course, more than just the website

If you're interested to read the benefits, heres the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_Delivery_Network

Now, back to proving my statement above, I will let a picture i screenshot speak for itself
http://i33.tinypic.com/308fryo.jpg

In case you wan to see for it yourself, here is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_MfkhOgQ8M

And oh, please don't forget to use a local dns as resolver :)
(PS: Video longer than certain minutes are then cache in google's mirror)
