How do you measure bandwidth speed by miles? I've never heard that speed metric before.

Not literally measured by miles - although, if that download speed is almost the same in upload speed, it's at least 75x faster than the quickest upload I get on Virgin's cable network in my area (12Mbps). Just more of an expression to reflect how much quicker it is than what I'm able to get on what @godziila is describing as 'ADSL' performance.

But everybody knows @godzilla will be gone for trolling a known provider here. He doesn't believe it is actually 'ADSL' speed. He is just playing stupid.

No tour am not interested to tour your home basement data center with adsl uplinks.

Here's a speed test I got over their network earlier today (from a provider using their servers):

[matthew@ldn1-uk ~]# wget -O /dev/null http://cachefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test

Almost 900Mbps there over Clouvider's 'ADSL' network - @Clouvider mind telling me where you're sourcing this 'ADSL' connection? It's faster by miles than the fibre / cable broadband that I can get in my local area!

That's a fake speed test,

I just did one of my Clouvider vps

mark@uk:~$ wget -O /dev/null http://cachefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test

Next time when you try to fake a post like that I propose you calculate the ETA better as you botched it by 2 minutes and 17 seconds.

Must be a wget error, i can share the Clouvider server ip i tested from if that helps.

@godziila that'd be as much as we're happy to share publicly. We're as transparent as we can be. If you (or anyone for that matter) is interested in our services, we're happy to meet at any of our PoP sites and take you on a tour.

If you're interested, you can read more about our recent upgrades here: https://www.clouvider.co.uk/blog/infrastructure-upgrades-newsletter/

Thanks for sharing these information, makes a better point for possible future service consideration.
But kinda wondering, why you don't have a peeringdb-entry? Mean, yeah sure HE's information are nice as well, but am always looking for peering speeds of providers, because you know, sometimes they have like a super-duper IX, but are only connected thorugh 100M to it.
Now knowing that you peer with LINX at at least 10gbps which is nice of course, but would be even nicer to show what the network can do in a little entry there instead of searching.

We do !

We don't like congestion, so worry not, when the traffic levels justify it, we will upgrade port with any IX/peer/transit we have. Quality and Customer Satisfaction are the most important to us.

Wow, gotta contact the doctor about my eyes... Am sure I've not come across this while searching.......but now it does......okay, thanks XD
