Started off bursting with 350kB/s, then, amazingly, it steadied at 317/318kB/s (amazing that the speed remained so constant, and so high!)

Using UTV 3Mb connection.

Exactly 1.0MB/sec on an NTL 10Mb connection.

Same here on the same package. Started at 1.1MB/sec then half way through dropped to around 0.9MB/sec... Happy with that!

A bigger file would be better but I'm getting 5.52MB/s {or 44.16 Mb/s }for the current.iso file.

Edit:

And yes that is MB/s not Mb/s

5.52 megabytes = 44.16 megabits

OP: Why do you want to know this info?

@ nd - are you having any speed probs downloading from rapidshare (.com or .de)?
I'm on same service as you

about a week before the upgrades I could get a steady transfer rate of 330KB/sec
about a few days before the upgrade, and since then I cannot get any better than about 70 - 80K transfer

any other sites I can hit the full 700+ transfer rate

is it possible for dw to limit RS downloads?
would find it hard to believe they would /could "throttle" [for want of a better word] rs downloads when it's all http traffic

strange it happened just before the upgrades *suspicious*

maybe watty could shed some light??

I am hard-wired via two 800 Mb/s fibre linking directly into a Tier 1 backbone.....,
Basically my system is connected fibre end-end with HEANet

And YES I am a bandwidth whore....

It is VERY easy for an ISP or even anybody running Linux {Squid} to throttle per date type, origin, destination, size, time, etc,
And that is before you even get into DPI {Deep packet inspection} with can do this to even highly encrypted data.
