Click here for a recognized easy-to-use tool. Choose the city nearest you and let it run!
For example...You may have a reported 10 mbit/second (mbps) Internet speed but with an unadvertised upload speed of only 0.25 mbps. The difference here - if a file takes 30 seconds to download at 10 mbps, it would take 20 minutes to upload.
Completing the Metron Cloud Backup after new images are acquired could take several hours if you have this upload speed scenario.
The US Internet speed averages for download and upload are 22.9 mbps and 10.5 mbps. We often find practices with Internet subscriptions that do not automatically increase their speeds.
Contact your ISP for a description of their automatic speed increase practices.

Meet Simba: King of the Tree
|
About a year ago, we had to make a hard decision and put our cuddly cat Chief
down due to liver damage. He lived a fun and loved 11 years with us.
Our family's heart was left empty and, a
fter some time, we decided to visit our local shelters. We made our last stop at the Fox Valley Humane Society in Appleton, WI.
Our entire family fell in love with Simba the instant we saw him. He was so friendly, playful, and absolutely adorable. He loves playing fetch (and yes, he is a cat). Of course, his favorite game is chasing the laser. He is very bound and determined to get the laser. I am sure someday he thinks he will catch it. His new favorite toy is our Christmas tree. He thinks it the best climbing tower with the most "toys" to try to knock off.
I think the only one in the house who is not too terribly fond of him is his stepsister Diva. Of course, she is WAY more mature and doesn't want anything to do with his antics. By the end of the day, Simba will tucker himself out enough to snuggle with her in peace (for the most part).
The absolute best part of my day is at the end of each day, I sit and read with our son Isaac and, of course, Simba. Simba loves to read, and if we are running late with reading, he will meow to let us know it is time to sit down to cuddle and read.
He has brought so much laughter and love into our home we are pleased to provide him with a forever home.
