Not super fantastic, but not bad.<br><br>Web pages shouldn't load slow because of that ping, so I suspect it's something other than latency (or very well could have been completely unrelated to the WiMax itself, or the ping times to the NYT servers could be much much higher, etc.).<br><br>However, 82ms ping is about as high as I would want to play a serious FPS on (say Team Fortress 2).  I usually won't even connect to most servers unless the ping is < 50 ms.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jesse]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 9th 2008 11:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on XOHM roundup: WiMAX-enabled Aspire One, speed testing]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/09/xohm-roundup-wimax-enabled-aspire-one-speed-testing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/09/xohm-roundup-wimax-enabled-aspire-one-speed-testing/</guid><description><![CDATA[Did anyone who signed up for the quality test in Baltimore ever hear back from them?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[neodorian]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 9th 2008 10:41AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on XOHM roundup: WiMAX-enabled Aspire One, speed testing]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/09/xohm-roundup-wimax-enabled-aspire-one-speed-testing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/09/xohm-roundup-wimax-enabled-aspire-one-speed-testing/</guid><description><![CDATA[wow, I would say that's pretty fast.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[htd]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 9th 2008 11:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on XOHM roundup: WiMAX-enabled Aspire One, speed testing]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/09/xohm-roundup-wimax-enabled-aspire-one-speed-testing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/09/xohm-roundup-wimax-enabled-aspire-one-speed-testing/</guid><description><![CDATA[Either result is faster than my 3 Mbps down/768 Kbps up DSL service from AT&T.  The latency is pretty typical for a wireless network, since there's setup/signaling involved with transfers whereas on wired Ethernet, your link is set up when you first connect to the network.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Edward]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 9th 2008 12:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on XOHM roundup: WiMAX-enabled Aspire One, speed testing]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/09/xohm-roundup-wimax-enabled-aspire-one-speed-testing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/09/xohm-roundup-wimax-enabled-aspire-one-speed-testing/</guid><description><![CDATA[These are some pretty good speeds.

I can deal with 3Mbps down on a consistent basis, I've seen speeds up to 6-7Mbps at times.  In all honesty, its not that bad.  :)  Upload speeds the past two days have been around 1.5Mbps but I've seen it around 3Mbps up at times.<br><br>I'm ditching Comcast all together here shortly once XOHM 'officially' announces service for this area.  Comcast's recent price hikes have put me over the edge with their TV service.  I can get decent OTA HDTV / DTV and for the amount of TV I watch its fine with me.  I can miss those few cable channels I watch here and there.  Just not worth it, crazy paying $150/month for TV and Internet when I'm only one person.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JOkazaki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 9th 2008 4:51PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
