Re: Anyone on the 20mbit/s yet?

Just been upgraded, ran speed tests on speedtest.net and irishisptest.com which both show slower than it used to be (3MB or so), however just tried doing a real download via newsgroups and it went straight up to 20MB!! What's the speed test people are running here (4 lots of 512K) ?
