Our IT department is the WORST at networking. The firewall and routing setup looks like it has been done by a complete noob.

I can transfer files faster from my home computer to Switzerland than I can from my work computer to the guy sitting next to me.......no joke.

Not too bad. I have comcast so its slow on the upload. I'm curious though. I see alot of high numbers here. Just out of curiousity who here is running thiers at home? Who is the service provider and cost per month?

I'm guessing the higher numbers posted from home are FIOS guys.

HA! You have it made compared to me. Yes this is my work connection. I don’t know what the hell my IT guys are trying to do to me. I guess they want me to quit.
