Re: Good accurate and reliable speed test
Wow, telford's back and posting rubbish speedtests again! Wonder if he gets comission per speedtest he brings to the sites, because every one he has claimed so far to be "good" "accurate" or "reliable" has been anything but.
Magnet.ie can't reliably measure any connections over 50mbps download or 10mbps upload.

Re: Good accurate and reliable speed test
I am still trying to work out if the imminent collapse of the stock markets around the world and the satellite crashing to earth are linked to the return of telfordcable in same way :-/

I have to admit I really don't understand the obsession with knowing exactly how fast the connection is if it browses fast, streams smoothly, games responsively and is there or there abouts when doing normal downloading.
EDIT: Just for you Telford - this is spot on every time
