ritchie58 Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Want to find out how fast your internet connection is and if you're getting your hard earned money's worth from your Internet Service Provider? Here is a web site where you can do just that. It's called speedtest.net To do a test you will need JavaScript enabled for this site. You can connect to dozens of servers from all over the U.S. and the globe. After how ever many tests you care to perform you can review the results and even compare how those results stack up to other parts of the world. According to speedtest.net South Korea has the fastest overall connection speed where the U.S. only ranked 29th compared to the rest of the world. I found that a little surprising! A lot of people in the U.S. still using dial-up maybe? I know this is off topic as far as security issues go but I thought some folks might find it useful to satisfy their own curiosity.
