ALLIANCE KOLKATA 6mbps SPEED TEST

Prime is definitely better...difference between the price would be roughly around 50-60 bucks
@Revolution why would you stay with zoom plus when you are getting much better perks with Prime??

@Nirmallya Addy You will have to contact your local cable operators and check with them.Cause it all depends on the cable operators.
Try calling alliance,they might give you the no. of someone who provides service in your location!

I am on Preferred plan 700kbps gives around 80 kBps download speeds through IDM/torrents
night plan starts from 1am to 9am-4mbps giving close to 400 kBps or higher!!
Most of the torrents are peered even if you download from piratebay...
 
that doesn't have to do anything with the contention ratio...
the difference is because of bits and bytes!!
kbps=kilobits per second
kBps=kiloBytes per second
since 1 Byte = 8 bits so 700kbps = 87kBps
contention ratio defines the number of users who can/may share the allotted internet bandwidth,so in a 1mbps connection and 1:10 contention ratio is all the 10 users are simultaneously downloading something then they will effective get 100kbps only(speed gets divided among them),though the probability of that happening is extremely low.
 
100 kbps each of course,the full 1 mbps bandwidth is always available for the users!
If only one person gets then 1 mbps for him to enjoy...
But you know,don't worry about contention ratio too much. I've been using internet for ages and never have I got a speed lower than my plan's internet speed...:)

Thnx a lot bro!!!
Needed this info......well do u use wireless router, or fully wired
 
The speeds did not reduce too much in the next room...maybe just a slight hit,nothing too noticeable!
Though a big home would warrant a better ranged router!
