My local ISP just done some major work last night at the works broadband connection and when doing a speedtest these are the results :

 

 

What results do you get arround the country ?

 

:yes:

Thats obviously Virgin and not BT...? Jammy bugger....

 

Stafford Virgin Cable. Medium package I think. I am sure this should be quicker

 

Medium package is 30M.. complain... lol...

 

Tell em you want something free as well, you will probably get it..

Have you Guys with slow speeds looked at the stuff Gio does on here? Its beyond DSL, using satellite. Latency is a bit naff but some great download speeds. Cant remember the costs but remember thinking the sat stuff has come down real quickly..

Recommended it to a couple of Directors with big houses in alien landing country...

Satellite broadband has such bad latency, and it depends on how the weather is to how much speed you get.

 

Heres mine anyhow, soon to be on the 120Mb/s

 

My first results were from my work which uses a dedicated 100Mbps Fibre line,

 

So to be fare heres my results from home !

 

Spawny git, I'm stuck with a crappy BT line which I dont think is being upgraded anytime soon. The best of it is that the old houses at the top of the street have cable, but the house builders wouldnt have it installed when they built this estate.

Piss poor but no other options in my area... Some cabling companies have been cabling the crap out of the surrounding area of late, not managed to find out what they are actually putting in but heres so hoping!

hers mine from home. not sure if any other providers offer any faster speeds, i know infinity isnt here till december :-(

 

Virgin Media 50mb Sub

 

UK Test

 

USA Test

 

 

just a tip if u have 20mb more sub .. dont do the test on wireless network

use it on Wired as it can transfer data alot faster

this can be some of the reason if u Internet is a little slowwwww

Was working very late last night at work moving an entire server suite from our old

Prestwick Site over to the new Offices which are now located in Troon.

 

We've also invested in a lot of very expensive Cisco Switches for our Network backbone

and very early this morning after the install was done we ran a fresh speed test !

 

And heres the results :

 

 

Bloody impresive and Totally Gobsmacked we were !

 

Think thats a personal best, lol !!

That upload speed is crazy

Just done another serious of tests today and were now getting this :

 

 

Have you ever heard of a service providor giving more than what you pay for ?

 

As we pay for a 100Mb leased line connection which terminates premises side via fibre optic i'm guesing

they dont have any restrictions in place speed wise either because they cant or they dont expect us to

have the equipment at our side to handle the connection.

 

Did i mention how quick a movie downloads?:lol:

 

lol

i think i hate you! lol

just tried it at work and getting upload speed of 529.7 mbps

Go on then show the proof, lol

 

You sure its not 529.7kbps:innocent: :tt2:

just tried it at work and getting upload speed of 529.7 mbps

No idea how to show proof

 

It was def mbps

 

I am on janet though so would expect it to be high. Especially as its designed for about 20000 people on site and due to easter closure there is only about 100

Yep, throughput on JaNET can be significant, depending on which site you are based, probably the most technically advanced network in the country !
