What Connection Does This Place Have?

[Phyltre]

I wandered over to the bandwidth-checker to see what kind of connection my dorm has.

Without further comment, I present a link to an image of the results...

I've got a leech downloading stuff off of me right now (I'm in residence at a university, and I share stuff over my subnet; the person downloading off of me isn't sharing anything), so this probably isn't my optimal speed.

That reminds me: are there any tools I could use to find out who's downloading what off my computer over the network?

uh, how is your upload faster than your download?

[Phyltre]

I don't really know.

I guess it must be my location, but I certainly haven't messed with anything.

download=2860 kbps
upload= a whopping 160 kpsb :p!

38734 down
23960 up
That's in bytes

Disappointing.
Only 7715 kbps down and 7326 kbps up.

Must be all the people around me downloading anime.

The whole college probably shares a T3 or several T1s. You're getting a higher upload because more people are downloading than uploading.

Too busy leeching right now :)
