EVE Online Windows Installer via BitTorrent Should be able to hit 10 MB/s download with a good connection to my seedbox. My home connection is slower: 3 MB/s down, 1 MB/s up (25/10 Mbit/s VDSL - I'm too cheap to pay for 50/10).

We have 100/40 fibre to the house.

It will be very hard to go back if I ever move.

Meanwhile - while Australia has decided 20Mb is "good enough" for a country that basically mines coal, I read somewhere Japan and Korea are both looking at upgrading from their100Mb to 1000Mb.

Now tell us what your ping latency is so we can have a real laugh. Then after you have a cry, go ask your government why they haven't run a cable to Japan.

100Mb fibre to the house (same system Google just rolled out to 32 US cities)
But I am in one of the very few Aussie towns that got proper internet before a change of government and a new "5Mb is all you need to download photos of your daughters playing netball" policy was introduced. Our current government seems under a fantasy that "new technology" will give high speeds over WWII vintage copper phone lines that play up when it rains :D
The only downside for me is I cannot ever move from my current town without potentially facing a huge drop in bandwidth.

That is still speed. Has something changed? Is Australia properly connected to the world or do you have a latency problem?

I am in the UK.
Ping 78ms to Reykjavik, Iceland.
Ping 168ms to Reno, California
Ping 307ms to Sydney, Australia

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

Do a pathping to 87.237.38.200 which should be in London... not to Iceland.

My ping times is almost at ~300ms; Twitchy Valk or Legion will not be really great for me. 'Casual' EvE is really awesome for me, so in a way its a perfect standard for a global MMO. Speedtest results are not really reliable since default test parameters point to servers near your location.

Paying USD23 for a supposed 1.4D/0.36U 300GB cap.

Its a quality of the connection that does matter and this is getting worse and worse every year. This needs to be addressed and not the connection speed!
