damn parow did not make the list

Again, this means nothing. Most folks only use speedtest when they are having problems. Rather ask the network operators for their true information. Now that would be interesting.

 

[McGuywer]

Go Bucharest!

Lekker Clara!

 

[Lino]

Go Durbanville!!!

 

[dualmeister]

Or when IT people come across a really fast connection.

How do I check for other results with my postal code? Is it possible? You enter that info if you take part in the survey. I want to see who the fastest ISP is for my neighbourhood. I'll obviously take it with a pinch of salt.

Wasn't Parow top suburb a couple of months back? How can they just completely drop off the list.

Parow: Average of 9.37mbps. I see it's only for speedtests done in the last 30 days, pretty pointless then.

Go Durbanville!!!

Pfft..I only get 3Mbps and I'm in Durbanville!

 

[buyeye]

Go, Latvia!

Where is that Darn bus I should have gone last week.

 

[Cloud]

Pfft..I only get 3Mbps and I'm in Durbanville!

I hear you brother, I too struggle to maintain a 3mbps line

Krugersdorp FTW! Our speeds are dismal compared to the top international cities.

 

[Necuno]

Wow pretoria/tshwane so fast it doesn't list

Rather place my bet on testmy. For all we know speedtest.net is fixed like futuremark...

 

[Dlamaqhinga]

i'm in Midrand, next to Vodawrld i don't get such speed

 

[falcon786]

Fietas!WTF???? I need to seriously consider moving if even fietas is getting faster speeds than me!

 

[justing]

How can 1 to begin to compare suburbs? Johannesburg is a city, yet Kingsmead is but a mere few blocks.

damn parow did not make the list

I'm assuming that they confuse Parow/Durbanville sometimes. Probably more to Durbanville where the good speeds are anyway, now with telkom's 40mbps VDSL launching there aswell.

My exchange can only manage 4MB
