Silly question are you checking only download rates or combining with upload? I'm not in the US so I'm not familiar with the ISP's there . Back in the day one of my ISP's did calculations by combining down/up rates to get more out of their customers.

I'm down into the cable modem guts at this point. I can track the Total Unerrored Codewords which gives me a very accurate measure of how much data is coming into the modem. In the past 1.15 days, I see 11GB. About as close to the metal as I can get. Off on jury duty, so haven't done much the last few days.

You literally need to split up the number.

I thought it was bloody clever, me, so I did.
And I still don't get all the clues from your Queen thing - I wasn't answering it I was insulting you!

Clue 0 - Jezza's band?
Jeremy Corbyn is anti monarchy, cruel twist.
Clue 1 - Followed Mr Wiggins
Bradley Wiggins, aka 1st British winner of Tour de France, a Bicycle Race.
Clue 2 - Though some have fallen, May go on forever
Freddy went *poof*, but Brian May goes on and on.

Blimey!
Had to google Jeremy and Bradley - us non-poms don't keep up with such parochial news!
No way one would have found Jeremy Corbin from Jezza and related it (no mention of anti-monarchism on Wiki for example!)
Mr Wiggins similarly - although a certain Nicole Wiggins has some fine photos on Instagram!
And it's a stretch from capitalisation of May (one assumed a typo) through "going on forever"
Well done!

Divide.
I have no idea why - it's just a WAG...
|

Nage beat you by a few seconds
Can you work out why? (why the answer is Divide not why he beat you by a few seconds!)

The first 5 letters are roman numerals for 50(D), 4(IV), 1(I), and 50(D) again.
This is followed by e - 2.7182818....
|
|
|
|
|
Indeed.
Although the first one is
504 (DIV)

You deciphered it then?

Yes.. but then I replied to myself rather than to you so net IQ = 0

Fortunately the romans didn't have a symbol for 0

Ah, I see I've forgotten half my Roman numerals!
(The 500 at the end was confusing me...)
|
|
|
|

Yeah but the Roman numerals for 50 million, four hundred and fifteen thousand and two are not DIVID (indeed that's not the Roman numeral for anything) and if you're splitting the number what reason is there to suppose it's not 50, 4, 1500 for example? Had the clue been something like ...
f(50415002.71828500) = 504 + 1 + 500 + 2.718285
... that would be an entirely different matter!
|
|
|
|
|
Roman numerals can't express the fractional component, but I guess that's beside the point
