Hi guys,
this is something that has been bugging me for a few days now.
When I send a file to my gf we get a speed of about 14kb max BUT when she sends me anything we get speeds of 84kb.
we both use the same version of AIM 5.5.3595.
I have windows XP with SP2 and Zone Alarm pro firewall using a cable modem connection of 750k
She has Win 2k again with zone alarm pro and shes on a college network it’s either T1 or T3.
Any ideas as to why there is such a drastic difference?any ideas would be appreciated
And you are on Cable or DSL, right?
With Cable and DSL your upload speed is slower then your download speed, so you wont be able to send out files very fast, but you can recieve them quickly… on a T1 or T3 line, the upload and download speeds are relativly the same, so you would be able to send files faster (that is why she can send you stuff faster)
