Default Re: Well, I just pulled another all nighter

I was at work when I was trying to download the file (yes I know, company time... ). At work I have a OC3 connection. If you are not certain what this means I usually get around 400 to 700kbps, fast, really fast. When I did finally get the file the average DL speed was around 5.5kbps, slow, really slow. Could be angelfire (the host) was performing some kind of maintainance...

OC-3 is a 155.52 Mbps SONET (Synchronous Optical NETwork) connection; if you're only getting 400 to 700 kbps, either you're sharing that connection with lots of people or the remote site is only allowing you that much bandwidth.

Sorry; couldn't resist showing off my knowledge of real-world stuff...

Right you are, I am sharing it with lots of people, a good section of my province in fact...

Thanks for the Klingon Speech file. I have added it to the zip and reloaded it. Thank you.

Hey, if you have a good ability to download large files, download this, and watch it. Its kinda depressing, but never the less stirs the fire for space combat.

DS9 Music Video to Knocking on Heavens Door

You'll have to go to my site to download the video. A link to it is posted in the News Section. Enjoy.
