roflmao...somehow i do not believe that ONE LITTLE BIT!

[Mr.Tweak]

I wouldn't have thought it would have made any difference.

Actually, that IP range is reserved for future use by IANA (the assigning body for IP addresses). Using that IP on the Internet is illegal, and can land you in BIG ****!!! :eek:

No, I don't believe it either :p

[Kheldar]

its faster when you have a gigabit network

[sKuLLsHoT]

what are we talking here tho kheldar:
. <- one-tenth of that amount of a difference?

in all reality, who designs their network around IP addys that'll "resolve quicker"

can u explain wot it is in the way TCPIP works that makes these IPs quicker to understand than others?

Sounds like a load of bollocks to me! If you're going to be that worried about speed, why not use UDP instead of TCP?

[Beefy]

cos some of us like a little reliability now and then.. if our OS can't give it to us, then hopefully something can.. :D

[Shepps]

:eek: illegal.........:eek: oh dear :s

[brashquido]

You're probably right Beefy, plus the fact it isn't a click in the box kind of option like TCP is. It would be able to give a bit of a kick in the arse for speed in a switched network environment though.

Sorry I havent read the article above and I probly won't but I am guessing that it has something to do with the "AND"ing process.

Okay going back to my corner now
