Is your internet connection below average? Test your connection speed here!

[editor]

wow, you must be living next door to the exchange to get that sort of speed ed

I can see it from my window! It honestly doesn't feel that fast though but I guess that's down to the sites I'm looking at etc.

 

[Jackobi]

I still get super fast speeds reported but it doesn't feel that speedy.

That is because you use Kaspersky and it gives false speedtest readings.

They've souped-up my office connection :-

Download speed : 37.88Mbps
Upload speed : 9.12Mbps

 

[Riklet]

Meh, not too bad, it goes up to 5mb sometimes, or did last year anyway. Ocationally get downloads nearing 500kb/s, usually about 450, but there's five of us sharing it....

...then again, net is paid by our landlord. It's free; mouths, gift horses etc...

 

[boskysquelch]

Congratulations your internet connection is faster than that which you can achieve using ADSL Max!

yay

New system too.

not true with me - just downloaded a mix - took about 30 seconds! amazing. well chuffed. got a 5gig torrent next - will see how it copes with that

You've got Virgin through their cable network - very fast. If cable isn't laid in your street, Virgin will sell you bog standard DSL which can be as crap as ymu's

 

[gentlegreen]

Got a different result this time ..

 

[manstein]

I'm happy with this result as I'm at the end of a long above ground line.

 

[gentlegreen]

That's odd - my home connection is supposed to be 2 megs down, 256 up ... and it was the last time I tested it.

Maybe time to downgrade again.

 

[gentlegreen]

Just checked and the slowest I can get now is "Up to 10 megs"

I have no use for this kind of speed.

Uni internet, pretty good, home net would be faster though!

Always worth bearing in mind if you're connected to t'internet through wireless, then your speeds may well be limited through that, especially if you have relatively poor signal etc. I used to get about 6mb via wireless (when it worked) connected to our crap router (20mb supposedly, virgin) but when connected up via ethernet it was always bang on.

Powerline Plugs are really useful if you have gashtip wireless signal in your house, IME.

I still need no more than a tenth of that down .. not sure how fast youtube will take video uploads - I'll have a look next time.

 

[metalguru]

standard virgin media

 

[gentlegreen]

How come you're getting 1 meg up ?

 

[Corax]

Virgin:

Broadband.co.uk
Download speed : 7.02Mbps
Upload speed : 0.97Mbps

Speedtest.net

Why on earth are the two results so different for d/l?

 

[kittyP]

We are with O2 broadband. Is that the same as Be for the purpose of this as it's not an option on the site?

 

[marty21]

Download speed : 5.8Mbps
Upload speed : 0.27Mbps

is that any good?

BT btw

Now it is
13792 kpbs Download
883 kpbs upload

still BT

 

[starfish]

Virgin Media, pay for 10mbps get 9.456 d/l & 1.006 u/l.

 

[Boris Sprinkler]

sup.

OR

On 3, SIM only 'all you can eat' data, using a phone as a wireless access point.

Not too bad. Not had this contract long enough to know if we'll get throttled much. It is very nice not to be paying by the GB any more.

 

[fredfelt]

.49 mbps download (.32 mbps upload)

That's through a wireless router. I'll get a cable plugged in to see if that improves things. It has been up to 1mbps - with a stated max of 2mbps - I guess the rest of the village has just started using the internet and the capacity has not increased. Can't even play utube videos at the moment! grr.

 

[gentlegreen]

This is at work - with far fewer people in than usual.
