====================================================

Not just for Geeks! Did you peek last time? Many folks are sharing an internet connection these days. So, let’s talk about sharing that bandwidth. What the heck is bandwidth? Bandwidth is the amount of bits of data that you send and receive to the cloud (geek speak for the internet). It is a limited supply depending on how much you have contracted from Prodigy. You should be getting a download speed of around 4.8 mps (Mega Bits per Second) with an upload of .6 mps. Notice you get 8 times more download than upload. That has a direct affect on VOIP calls such as Vonage, Ooma, Magic Jack, Skype, etc. If the person on the other end has trouble hearing you, then someone is overusing the upload capability. That can happen in a host of ways. First, you can only make one VOIP call at a time over the same network. Second, you can’t upload photos to Facebook, Picasa, your Mom, etc. You can’t send attachments while making a VOIP call. Light surfing by one computer is generally not enough to affect a call. Now, if you are using a media sharing site, you are hogging all the up and down bandwidth!!! If you are using a uTorrent site, you are hogging. Be polite and know what you are using if you are sharing. If you own your connection and are not sharing, then go for it – as long as your wife is not talking to her Mother in which case you will get “the look”!

Internet speed testing – For consistency, use the same test site. I use two: http://reviews.cnet.com/internet-speed-test/  and http://www.bandwidthplace.com/

That was last week and the only bugs we have seen since are dead ones. The service was fantastic but best of all was the price.
