Mine varies.  That's a terrible ping though.

We used to and there's maybe one internal server still, so I guess that's the reason for it.  All of our main servers are hosted externally now.

We have get about 50Mbs UP at our office. Which is about the same as the download speed. Seems like a lot but many people work with large media files and often have to upload them to vendors or cloud services, its nice to have.

finally got fiber connected to the cabin today. After two years of Satellite which is suuuuuuper slow.
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

I imagine he spun it himself from a handmade forge then blazed through the wilderness, digging a trench and burying the line along the way. In a weekend.  On instagram.

Yeah, and he probably dug that trench with an axe.  He probably also did it with both kids on his back while making a tasty rabbit stew that he killed with that same axe.

...and as he cleared the trench, he whittled the felled trees into handmade furniture along the way.

Speaking of internet speeds...

I was previously paying $53 / month for 30 mbps service. More than enough for what I need, but I decided to switch to another company that was slightly cheaper. To avoid losing a customer, my current provider offered me 500 mbps service for $29.99 / month for 12 months. No contract.... ok, so I'll delay cancelling for another year :)
