Girlfriend just switched off her machine so thought mine would run faster!
Nope even slower??
Not bad considering the house is a shitty old miners cottage that is well over a hundred years old. The new builds up the road don't get enough band width to run XBOX live.!
I just wish the upload speed was anything like the download speed. It's taking ages to upload videos to fb, photobucket and pinkbike

Chr1st, I knew it was bad, I didn't realise it was that bad.
Still, it's as fast as I can w@nk so I ain't complaining

Unhelpfully speedtest is blocked by the firewall, But I reckon we only get about 2MB between 80 of us on the Rig.
I reckon CGHQ will have the fastest.

Nottingham. It will be interesting to see next week - on Friday I'm being regraded from ADSL 2+ to VDSL/FTTC.

Live in Cheltenham - not out in the sticks or anything and I get this:

Well I had my FTTC/VDSL link put in today and have just tested. Me happy!
Rural Suffolk:

and due to improve over the next porn days....
whoop whoop, 5 miles from central London- and they say things are tough up North..
AdamW - why would you go with IDnet when they're more expensive than BT and have bandwidth caps on their FTTC service?
One advantage of living in Switzerland 100MB for £50

Mainly trust. BT do traffic-shaping and I prefer to work with UK-based chaps. When I had FTTC installed I think some spanning tree work was happening as some websites would not load completely so I called them and they answered immediately. Idnet don't do any shaping (not that I use bit torrent or the likes TBH as I can't be asked).
I don't mind the caps, per se as I rarely get anywhere near them. Saying that I think that after this year is up (12 month contract) I may look around as I went from ADSL 2+ 40GB peak/140GB peak for £25 to FTTC + 30GB peak/ 120GB peak for £28.
And I'm sick of throwing out useful equipment. I now have a decent net gear ADSL2+ router/modem for b/g/n and can't use it any more.
