Some countries/server are much slower

[Track-Me-If-You-Can 0]

Hello,

 

I have acutally only in Germany, where I live and in the Nertherlands, a good download speed. Does it correlate so much with the distance to the server? I thought it has only an effect on the ping, but not so much on my download speed. I would like to use the server in Switzerland, but they drop my speed consideably.

 

I made a test, where i download simultaneously from different hosters with jDownloader (speedtest.net shows me everytime a slightly lower value than the real download speed):

 

Without VPN-Connection:

Downloadspeed: Ø 15.5 Mbps

 

Netherland (Alphirik) [26ms Latency & 20% Load]:

Downloadspeed: Ø 14 Mbps

 

Germany (Cervantes) [38 ms Latency & 19% Load]:

Downloadspeed: Ø 15 Mbps

 

Switzerland (Virginis) [40 ms Latency & 21% Load]:

Downloadspeed: Ø 10 Mbps

 

Sweden (Muphrid) [43ms Latency & 9% Load]:

Downloadspeed: Ø 3 Mbps

 

Canada (Alwaid) [114 ms Latency & 11% Load]:

Downloadspeed: Ø 5 Mbps

 

 

Do you have the same problem, too? Because I thought that I will get with my 16Mbps-Connection nearly fullspeed in Switzerland.

 

PS: I also changed the buffer size to 256 KB, installed the old Tab-driver and tried other protocols
