Interesting alright but I’ve never seen my speed go anywhere close to those numbers. Must be some people/businesses with expensive packages from Hinet who are driving the averages up. I have certainly caused the average to drop in the last few weeks 
Interesting in the opposite way … CHT is not in the top spot … it’s the biggest in Taiwan but not the fastest …
Yesterday I got 1.5 M download to Amsterdam … today it slowed down to a crawl 110 kb go figure, in 24 hours 90% slower … Hinet is the biggest ISP in Taiwan and it’s network is sooo unreliable …
Look … download from Dublin …
Patetic …
Taiwan … ‘international hub’ … for what? Binlang spit?
I mean, it’s not just to one server in Europe … why don’t they have a better connection to Europe … they have enough capacity running … are they just stupid or what …
The re-routing through the US during the cable break returned better results as it does now … I guess they have an underwater leak somewhere … bits draing out to the sea floor …
Yeah, Hi-Net really sucks bigtime since they “fixed” that cable…
I think this fixed cable to Europe has less capacity than the one to the US, therefore especially during the peak-times (17:00 - 24:00 plus weekends) speeds suck…

I really don’t know if the s-l-o-w s-p-e-e-d-s I’ve been getting lately have anything to do with the earthquake from back a while ago, but I’m going to try to get somewhere with HINET this week, even if it means going down there, getting a number, and talking to someone in person.
Usually CNN streaming video and NHL.com streaming video of game wrap-ups stream for me anytime of the day or night, no problem. Lately, the later in the day, the worse it gets. CNN free vids won’t even get a few seconds in and they need to re-buffer. This is worse than usual in my opinion.
I’ve got fixed IP 8M, something’s got to give. Anyone else feeling the bog? Last Friday night was ridiculous.
Changing your DNS servers may make initial connections faster. It won’t do a damn thing about speeding up a streaming connection once connected or reconnecting to a site you’ve already been to recently (in which case your PC still has the DNS info cached).
