John Wong SG http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7114728.stm#anchor Liews... I thought we should be like #1 or something.. how come we lagging so badly?
smartboy4 SG you think too much.. japan one really power.. i think with our 3mbps plan at $40 kind.. you go japan they say 3mbps knn you pay 50 cents per year they also say siao bo why give so much ?
laurence82 SG for a small country you would have thought our connectivity would be good but all are gahmen owned companies trying to suck singaporeans money
ndmmxiaomayi SG Connectivity is good, but the problem is, the survey about speeds. Most of us will have at least a dial up or broadband connection, but we don't have great speeds like in other countries.
Gasfene SG the problem lies with the fact that Singapore is densely populated. If one hdb flat can be condensed to one house, then sure thing our connection will be super fast.
Deino SG lets move to japan.....hooooooo..... you wan check your broadband speed go http://www.speedtest.net/ My speed on 12:29 Singapore time..... Singapore server: download speed:11067kbps upload speed:297kbps ping:53ms If i go Washington server:download speed:697kbps upload speed:207kbps ping:354ms If i go London server:download speed:1446kbps upload speed:202kbps ping:715ms If i go Tokyo server:download speed:1932kbps upload speed:268kbps ping:369ms If i go Sydney server:download speed:1411kbps upload speed:277kbps ping:435ms If i go Jakarta server:download speed:2668kbps upload speed:311kbps ping:64ms WTF sia i dunno about time factor but last time i got check my downloadspeed at all other servers expt JKT and Spore was are 2500 and the ping should be less also...... I hear japan is doing rnd on gbps broadband speed.....if spore dun use it when it comes out....i dunno wot else to say
Phaze SG The problem is overseas bandwidth. Japan and Korea both consume relatively little overseas bandwidth. If you want to compare, a more accurate comparison would be with Australia in one of the big cities.
4getmenot SG duh.. compare your 'densely population' to 'connection ratio' & 'number of broadband connection ratio' to the other top ten countries.. connectivity poor becuz its densely populated..? gimme a break lar..
