Hi Gary,

I am running AT&T DSL Extreme, and AMfone.net usually loads in less than one second, never as much as two seconds.

Hi Gary,

My ISP is Cablevision Optimum Online and the load time is invariably <2 seconds. Plus the reliability/availability of this service is extremely high, with virtually no downtime after 8 years of usage.

It;s one of the slowest that I've visited so far...

I'm on satellite, and with the propagation delay, on a good day,  it takes about 5 seconds to fully load. Sometimes more ( as much as 10secs), but that's just the way the steenkin satellite crud works...

Generally only about 1Mbs

Less than 1 second and is fast and consistent.  I am in a rural area connected via 5.4 Ghz wireless-generally around 1.2-1.5 Mb speed.

Load time normally less than 2 seconds.  Using cable mostly on wireless router which my computer says is running at 54 meg.  I have yet to find the site down; much better than some.

a couple seconds if my site is not busy with guests. There is some delay from the ads, but those come from other servers than AMFONE so this is counted without the googlesyndication script.

At work it can be very slow - but that's because our internet gateway is thru the US and is shared with thousands of other people.

I use Speakeasy DSL, and I'm just about exactly between Boston and Providence RI.

I cleared the browser cache and restarted, after which it took a little over four seconds to load the splash page.

G,
ATT DSL basic here at the home QTH is about 1 to 2 seconds and it's faster than Google considering AMFone's front page has more content than Google's.

At work with all the filtering General Dynamics has is about the same and still load time is faster than Google as well.

Your sight is about as efficient as they come IMO.

Good Job OM!
