Speed Test

Faster (unadvertised) internet has crept into our neighborhood and I uncovered it recently while setting up cell phone service with our local provider, SilverStar.

I know some of you live in large metropolitan areas where big bandwidth is common, but we live out here in the sticks! The max speed of our DSL for the seven years we’ve lived here has been around 1.2, upload less than .42 and pings between 60 and 90.

The new connection is now live and I’m pleased! Our NetFlix and Hulu+ accounts stream video to two Roku’s and when Steph watched a movie, bandwidth just dried up. We can now each watch different streams simultaneously and still have great Internet!
