10mb!

Just thought i'd post this - on 10mb here:

Thu, 1 Jun 2006 23:55:14 UTC

1st 512K took 23641 ms = 21.7 KB/sec, approx 179 Kbps, 0.17 Mbps
2nd 512K took 24125 ms = 21.2 KB/sec, approx 175 Kbps, 0.17 Mbps
3rd 512K took 21531 ms = 23.8 KB/sec, approx 196 Kbps, 0.19 Mbps
4th 512K took 25969 ms = 19.7 KB/sec, approx 162 Kbps, 0.16 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 178 Kbps, 0.17 Mbps


Think work must be going on at the mo, or something just died

Re: 10mb!

Don't think it is anything to do with the sped test being flooded. I just went to download a bunch of e-mails and gave up due to the time it was taking. I can send ok but here is my result from the Nottingham area and I also am on the 10Meg connection.

Fri, 2 Jun 2006 00:05:58 UTC

1st 512K took 27547 ms = 18.6 KB/sec, approx 153 Kbps, 0.15 Mbps
2nd 512K took 27953 ms = 18.3 KB/sec, approx 151 Kbps, 0.15 Mbps
3rd 512K took 27297 ms = 18.8 KB/sec, approx 155 Kbps, 0.15 Mbps
4th 512K took 20485 ms = 25 KB/sec, approx 206 Kbps, 0.2 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 166 Kbps, 0.16 Mbps

Same here. Usually I don't have a problem but it's dog-slow at the moment.

Re: 10mb!

Well let's not waste any time or money calling NTL to report any fault or faults because all they will tell you is this:

"It is an 'UP TO' 10MB service"

1st 512K took 20422 ms = 25.1 KB/sec, approx 207 Kbps, 0.2 Mbps
2nd 512K took 28156 ms = 18.2 KB/sec, approx 150 Kbps, 0.15 Mbps
3rd 512K took 24969 ms = 20.5 KB/sec, approx 169 Kbps, 0.17 Mbps
4th 512K took 26000 ms = 19.7 KB/sec, approx 162 Kbps, 0.16 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 172 Kbps, 0.17 Mbps

Looks like about the same speeds at the moment weather on 10mb or 2mb
My overall average speed is normaly very stable at 1.9 Mbps
