  I have no idea why is it so fast. I just tried it again:

nethack3.1.3.tar.gz: 2086286 bytes received in 1.67 seconds, 1221.76 K/s.

  I am in assari.cc.tut.fi and that nethack-file is located at ftp.funet.fi.
I don't know which type of line there is from here to outer world.

Well, no way I can get that sort of speeds, still the new POV-Ray site looks
much faster than it used to be. That's only my feeling after  a few trials
here in Ireland.

That's Sweden, one e and no q's. (No, I didn't say there were any q's, just
that there shouldn't be :P )

Secondly, you need to start at a University to get that speed. I'm on a
100 MBit house-net that goes directly to the main node in southern Sweden
for the Swedish University Net (34 GBit) about 300 feet away. 
I have pulled about the same speeds Mika mentions later in the thread half 
way acccros the country. 

At home though, it's the same old 3.7 kB / sec maximum. 

/Michael

Mika probably did the same as I did: Got lucyk and ended up on a fast line :)
My schools net sure has made me spoiled and picky.... one tends to do that 
with transferrates that go up and beyond 1 MByte / sec :) Also, pretty fun
to play Quake over the net when the server is less then 100 feet away :)
(Did someone say "ping"? ;) )

/Michael, spoiled net-brat :)

http://www.povray.org/ yields an OK index frame, but the content frame
says

404 Not Found

The URL requested was: /FlycastUniversal/index.js
The operating system reports "The system cannot find the path
specified." (3). 

Attempting to access http://www.povray.org/main.html directly yields the
same message...
