Hi everyone,

We're on a new server now, and I want to see what its capable of. My home adsl2+ connection isn't too flash and I was wondering if I could get some people to download a speed test file and post their average result?

The link is
http://dl.connexthosting.com.au/10mb.test.1 (10mb)
The file will be taken offline at 35 downloads.


Thanks! Please post your results.

Got close to line speed from Optus 200Mbit link:

Looks like E3/Hostingshop IPs.

Stu

You should get decent speeds 24/7 with E3/Dedicated Servers.

Tests like this are pointless.

Seems like they put it on it's own cpanel account to stop anyone spamming it.
