10mbit cable

See what I mean. Says its a 2mbit connection.

Its 10mbit cable, and I was just downloading at 1MB/s

mmm, my test topped out at ~380kb

but Ive had 600k out of it before...

some times it sucks, some times it doesent

I have a huge problem, all of a suddon I have gone from up to 8mb topping out at 3mb down to..

Connection to a UK-London Server ->

Down and up steam: 492 kb/s382 kb/s


basically while my upsteam roughly what it should be my down seems to be limited or capped by error to a 512kbps connection
currently doing emails
They wanted the standard tests done but done more then that

I bet you anything though it just looks like someone at pipex has whacked a limit on me where there should be none.

Right, Im going to try this out at work when Im in next week at night putting in the new 4510s.

We have a 100 Mbps MPLS link for internet connectivity, 8 x 16 Mbits (Mostly customer lines) and 10 x 2 Mbps for site to site VPNs

Work:

Not bad for the upload there.. lol as it rose up was beginning to think we had SDSL or something

business adsl has higher upload speed than residential,

884 kbps or something sync speed from what i remember

home


wierd that it has to have a 100 mile round trip as i live about 12 miles away  

ADSL Max just aint worht it at the moment in my opinion. It is not a fully tested service and a reliable one at that. Its no good for gamers Ive had friends having major problems with latencys and have resorted with going back to the straight 2meg lines.

Also as Serieous said sharing a pipe sux!

I get better rates than that im on a 512 pipex line and max out my line constantly on torrents and downloading in general.

ask them to take interleaving off if you game,
problem with adsl max is it shows up all the really cheap routers,
pretty much all my problems disappeared once id put a new router on my line.

I got


So is that saying 4mrg d/l? My router says im connected at 8.2meg, although I know I probably wont get speeds like this.

Tests the speed from your PC through the BT pipes to the ISP, not to the internet, which helps determine where the problem lies!

I got this from that test Mooney:

QuoteTest1 comprises of Best Effort Test:  -provides background information.
    IP profile for your line is - 7150 kbps
    DSL connection rate: 448 kbps(UP-STREAM)  8128 kbps(DOWN-STREAM)
    Actual IP throughput achieved during the test was - 6244 kbps

If you wish to discuss these results please contact your ISP.

If you are experiencing problems with specific applications, servers or websites please contact your ISP for assistance.

Your test has completed please close this window to exit the performance tester.

Does that look ok???

Well, I just tried a random file download on DAP, and am pleased with the results!!

Although my modem says Im connected @ 1,334 / 17,764 [kbps]

I regularly download from newsgroups and high bandwidth sites (MS, Intel etc etc) at 1.8-2.0Mb/sec. Not bad for Ã,£24 per month
