hello
I recently got Elisa 512Kbps ADSL connection. And it sucks big time. When i am downloading any torrent maximum speed is 40kbps (aggregate speed of all torrents!) and during this time i am unbale to surf internet because browsing speed is only about 6-10 kbps! Also the stupid connection keep disconnecting after evry 3 hour or so and i had to wait for 45 mins to get it back. I have been using 512kbps sonera connection before and it worked like charm, i caped about 150 kbps on torrents and still could surf web on decent speed.
I would like to know is this problem common with Elisa users or i am in some unqiue position.Also is Elisa limiting download speed of Torrents and FTP's?..
Thanks
Sonya

40-50 is the normal download speed for that connection.It is impossible to get 150. Perhaps Sonera had given you 2M/512 connection by mistake ?
Hello,
It's impossible download about 150 kb/s, because your connection speed is 512 kilobytes per second. That means that your teoretic maximum speed is 64 kb/s (512 / 8 = 64).
Test your real speed on Elisas own test: http://myip.kolumbus.fi:8000/speedtest/initialmeter.php
You're welcome.

Thanks both of you for your replies. I understood now 512/8 and taking into 13% overhead of TCP/IP and ATM transmission i will end up with about 55kbps. The reason for higher throughput with Sonera is perhaps due to the proximity of their Central office to my home.
