Currently with Snap for UFB but looking around - anyone on MR care to post some international speedtest.net results? Would be keen to see Dreamhost LA, Vodafone London, Telstra Sydney. Plus any more you want to throw in. Cheers!

They don't have enough downstream bandwidth.

That's disappointing. Thanks for sharing though.

They don't have enough downstream bandwidth.


Yet they were getting nearly 100Mbits to Sydney in another test!

I think I would like to see a lot more tests before saying MyRepublic don't have enough downstream.

The MyRepublic ping to LA seems quite good.

You should ask for traceroutes or pathpings to look at shifting to MyReplubic. 

They tell us they do 'special routing' for the gamer plan so I would be asking to see differences between different plans. And then comparing that to other NZ ISP's to see what MyRepublics routing looks like compared to others.

Edit: Any speedtests to LA servers are so hit and miss I wouldn't even bother doing them.
