Post by zicada »

Hey guys,

Need to try and figure this out. Could you all please try to download this file, and then reply with:

- The speed you got
- Where you are in the world
- Your ISP
- The speed you get using http://www.speedtest.net (remember to pick the server closest to you)

Here's the file:

Thank you
