1st 128K took 93 ms = 1409376 Bytes/sec = approx 11726 kbits/sec
2nd 128K took 110 ms = 1191564 Bytes/sec = approx 9914 kbits/sec
3rd 128K took 109 ms = 1202495 Bytes/sec = approx 10005 kbits/sec
4th 128K took 109 ms = 1202495 Bytes/sec = approx 10005 kbits/sec

1.2 Mb/sec is a 10 meg connection.

Are you using ZoneAlarm - there have been a lot of reports on CF of this having an adverse effect on speeds.

Re: Speedtest
I got rid of Zone Alarm and then Kerio, as I didn't feel I was getting full speed on 10 meg, tonight with one lad playing City of Heroes upstairs and the other doing MSN and surfing etc. I get this

1st 512K took 734 ms = 697.5 KB/sec, approx 5747 Kbps, 5.61 Mbps
2nd 512K took 657 ms = 779.3 KB/sec, approx 6421 Kbps, 6.27 Mbps
3rd 512K took 640 ms = 800 KB/sec, approx 6592 Kbps, 6.44 Mbps
4th 512K took 469 ms = 1091.7 KB/sec, approx 8996 Kbps, 8.79 Mbps
Overall Average Speed = approx 6939 Kbps, 6.78 Mbps
To be fair I expect this at this time, and I do get 9.4 in the morning.
Is there a bit of BF2 medic recharching going on there Baz ?
Also in Stockport  and BF2 "does seem" better since the upgrade, even with that going on ^^^^^^^^^.
