rofl no. thats not accurate in the slightest. speed tests are so wrong all the time. try downloading something, anything movie/music and take a screen shot of you going above 5 mb. pls
lmfao....
speedtest.net is SO fail. it says i get almost 2 mb/sec on my IPHONE internet? yea i cant download anything above 400kb/sec through my iphone. dont believe ANY speed tests, they are all false.
Keep in mind that the speed test show you a result in Megabits and not Megabytes. 1byte = 8bits

still not accurate for being in the US. ive been to 7 major cities, gotten THE best internet connections and never DL anything from anywhere above 3 mb/sec, and ive downloaded from hundreds of sites. what state do you live in? some magical state that has better internet then the rest of it? lol. or do you have some business internet? because im talking residential, and residential services arent that high.

schools, or communities near big schools our businesses can get access to T lines, and can get the sexy speed.
There were places in order that had access to em. Pricey, but there.

You are absolutely correct. Majority (90%) of people will never download over 5MB/s. Screenshots i posted are from my work and were meant to illustrate that it is in fact possible to download over 5MB/s. AFAIK you can get similar performance from Comcast with their 100Mb offer of FIOS 150Mb both @ $200 a month

well T1 lines only can download/upload at 1.5mb/sec which is what a lot of smaller companies get, they buy it for stability so it never goes down, not speed. a T3 line is like 28 of those combined. so if they had a T3 sure, most people are misinformed and most places false advertise about T1 lines giving "10-12mb/sec upload/download" when its completely false. they arent even technologically capable of going that high.

@ Userfriendly1 I was just typing a message in your thread and it was locked before I could place it, well congratulations I guess you better enjoy it as much as I think you will!
Also, solid classic backfire on WishedHeHasBeta(or GladHeHasBeta, whatever you spam by now), made me lol for sure!
Finally made it into the beta this morning. Too bad it's my girlfriend's birthday, otherwise I'd be totally nerdin' it up tonight. I made it to level 7 with a Witch Doctor though! Having lots of fun, and expecting to continue later this week and all weekend.

Glad my post helped so many people, I got a heads-up from a one reply post on the general forums, so they must have went out just after midnight. Got this up as soon as I saw confirmation from my own account. Got in and I'm in Canada.
Thank you DiabloFans for the Recent Posts tab, or I'd probably never check my b.net account. (I was signed up for the chance, but let's just say RNG has been lousy for me in the past.)

They send you an email letting you know you got invited. You can confirm by looking at your Battle.net account to see the D3 status set to -> Beta.
