That's a rather silly question, you can clearly see that it's working perfectly.

And Florence is most likely in a highly utilised area, not exceeded the cap.

Here's my 4Mb Blueyonder test over wireless -

Sun, 23 Apr 2006 14:31:12 GMT

1st 512K took 1297 ms = 394.8 KB/sec, approx 3253 Kbps, 3.18 Mbps
2nd 512K took 1703 ms = 300.6 KB/sec, approx 2477 Kbps, 2.42 Mbps
3rd 512K took 1172 ms = 436.9 KB/sec, approx 3600 Kbps, 3.52 Mbps
4th 512K took 1281 ms = 399.7 KB/sec, approx 3294 Kbps, 3.22 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 3156 Kbps, 3.09 Mbps

NTLs 2mb isn't capped and with the speeds I have been having this month I wouldn't be near any caps.

I get those speeds at aroun 12.30am daily, on my 4Mb, i find it very strange. But, around 12.35 it always picks back up, any idea why ?

That usually seems to be the case, Florence - proxies are _supposed_ to facilitate http traffic, but ntl's certainly don't. I wasn't on a proxy with ntl until just before last Christmas - then they got round to putting me on one. Definitely not so good - and even when speeds are going well, whatever proxy you're on always seems to go bad sooner or later... ;-(

If you don't have to use a proxy, don't - and count your blessings!
