Marky, I got very similar results testing on this forum while at the same time I was achieving near enough 10mbit/s on www.speedtest.net. Go to www.speedtest.net or www.speedtest.bbmax.co.uk

1st 512K took 4672 ms = 109.6 KB/sec, approx 903 Kbps, 0.88 Mbps
2nd 512K took 4016 ms = 127.5 KB/sec, approx 1051 Kbps, 1.03 Mbps
3rd 512K took 3250 ms = 157.5 KB/sec, approx 1298 Kbps, 1.27 Mbps
4th 512K took 2375 ms = 215.6 KB/sec, approx 1777 Kbps, 1.74 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 1257 Kbps, 1.23 Mbps


Terrible ^^, while at the same time -





My conclusion; there's something wrong with the test link on this site.

If its not that, are you running on a proxy that needs to be turned off in Lan settings?
When I goto that link and enter root/root I get the screen again like I have entered the wrong code had it for ages now must be a weird issue or something.

Been like that for a while, to be honest I get upgraded when I do, the extra upload will be handy for me.

Re: Anyone on the 20mbit/s yet?

Speedtest.net results

1184 kbs Down
583 kbs Up

I guess they both must be getting hammered or my connection is just crap

Maybe a uk issue original test was to london server, just tried speednet to frankfurt and it looks a little better

Re: Anyone on the 20mbit/s yet?

Speedtests are only as fast as the test server can deliver, and you will only get the speed of the weakest link in the chain.
So all in all pretty pointless
