When I announced my move to Grand Cayman, I said the 2 things that scared me the most where hurricanes and slow internet.
I turns out I don’t need to worry about the slow internet. Yesterday, I had Fiber internet installed and I am very happy with the speed: 12 Mbps download and over 15Mbps upload. I could pay more to bump my download speed to 50Mbps, but it’s not worth the price right now.
The test above is from Grand Cayman to Miami, which shows that I have a solid connection from my home back to the main land. It is also very interesting that my upload speed is higher than my download speed. The upload speed is higher than anything I ever had in Canada. (Shaw, your download speeds are great, but it’s time to do something about your upload speeds. 3Mbps just doesn’t cut it)
Yesterday, I added 1.2 GB of images to SkyDrive and it only look 25 minutes to upload. I had a Skype call and TeamViewer session with my brother in Saskatoon. The call was crystal clear and there was almost no delay when controlling his PC with TeamViewer.
Now if I could only do something about those hurricanes….
