Hi Daryl and all

just a small boast... with the help of Brian B and others, the Smart Road Web site is 
now hosted locally at our office - our own little web server using OS2 WEB and 
Apache and our email server  - and with ADSL hopefully speed will be 
acceptable,,,

www.smart-road dot com dot au

can also FTP  away from office so I am as happy as a .......

 so thanks to all involved....

Just tried access to the site Graham. That's pretty fast ! It's really coming up an ADSL
link ? If so, what speed is the uplink (ie Smart road to Internet ?). Usually the uplink
is slower than the download on both ADSL and cable connections, except if you
have unlimited bandwidth (as I now do) when they are usually the same.

By the way, the bottom 4 specialists and clinpath do not bring up any information,
is this correct (ie info not yet entered) or is this a bug ?

Cheers/2

Internode's ADSL standard is 250k up and 1.5M down - they have recenlty offered 500k
both ways but Grahams setup would have started before that.

Well no matter which ADSL option you're on, the speed is pretty
impressive (Perhaps it's loaded in internodes Proxy cache, which will
speed things up - I'll do a shift reload and see how long that takes).

Back in a sec ...

Well a shift-reload (which should normally go back to the server to
get its data) was just as quick. - So that's pretty impressive.

While we're on the point of website speed can anyone on the group
tell me the best way to include phots in a page so that they are loaded
to the callers browser both quickly and completely ?

Cheers/2

So that means when I load a page from the site, its going at a maximum speed of
256kb/s to the internet and then from my ISP (Telstra) down to me at up to 1.5mb/s
(depending upon caching etc.). Under this scenario, I am impressed at the loading
speed of the http://www.smart-road dot com dot au site.

I believe the theoretical maximum speed for ADSL is 7 mb/s but I guess it'll be
a while before we get there. One thing is for sure, the days of the 56k modem
except as backup link are numbered.

That would presume that every one in your street / neighborhood are only down
loading using ASDL - from what I have heard you cannot have high speed
(1.5M+) upload and download speeds in the same cable bundle - the 7M would
the total bandwidth with no guard bands etc and all data in the bundle going 
in the same direction.

You're right of course - but don't it just sound sooo  good "in theory"

I'm happy with my (tested) 1.5 mb/s in both directions for the time being .......
