Hi Rick,

I have been wondering, what type of internet connection and speed everyone who's running s BBS has? Please post what you have.

SEEN-BY: 1/100 101 102 103 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 116 117 118 SEEN-BY: 1/119 120 121 122 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 133 136 137

Can you fix your GoldED configuration so we dont get a dump of SEEN-BY's in your messages.

Hey Oli,

Good ${greeting_time}, deon!

I have not received RickVs message. Did your system not route it?

Correct, no node in Hub 3 would have received it, because it failed validation as a bad packet. Any other messages in the packet (if there were any) would not have been passed on either.

Howdy,

I don't have RickV's original Message. Is the message routing working correctly?

No nodes in Hub 3 would have received the original message (and any others after it in the same packet).

The fact that you're not passing on valid messages is probably a very bad idea, though.

My Internet Speed is DSL

100down/40up

I have cable internet at my house
which is supposed to be 1.5Gb down
and 50Mb up. My modem only has a
gigabit wan port on it, so I only
see about ¢940Mb down.

I have cable internet here as well but my god is it terrible.

I just ran a speed test and got 9.4Mbps down and 15.4Mbps up.

I haven't had any issues with my BBS or the internet here but those numbers are so bad I might actually have to call my ISP to check it out. (It's a fiber line! lol)
