with such a s...l...o...w internet connection. It was taken me an hour to download 1 part of a kit! So I looked into it and found that I was only getting 244 kbps when I should be getting 3000 kbps! Wow what a diffence in downloading time...I download everything in less than an hour!:thumbup:
 
UGH, my DL time is pretty slow too, but compared to your original, not really. LOL I think it takes me about 5 mins to DL an entire kit. Not horrible, but I know it could be faster.

YAY for getting it fixed.

Did you finally get it up and running?

I'll see you on Wednesday.
 
How did you find out how fast it was? I should check into mine. I'm not paying for the fastest DSL, but it does sometimes seem like it should be faster than it is! :)

I'm glad you got yours figured out! Woo-hoo!
 
I can't even remember those days so I have no idea how you could deal with that... We have 6mbps service now which I'm told is the fastest you can get. My dl's take about 1-2 minutes depending on the size of the file.
 
I had this problem on Saturday night...I was connected at the right speed, but my downloads were SOOO slow...not just at SSD but on several other sites too. I called my IP and they said it was the site, not them...but then like 10 mins later, everything started working better. I'd just struggled with the 1 hour downloads though for 2 files before calling them, lol.
 
I don't know how fast this is, really, as you pay on a tier level for the speed you want. Like the other gal, i'm keeping my money for buying kits,lol. Mine's fairly fast. It might take 10 minutes to download parts of a kit, like alphas, papers, etc. A bit longer if they're not divied up so small.
