How fast is your broadband?

Paying for 30 mbit..

Got 10/5 on http://www.broadbandspeedchecker.co.uk/

17/14 on a "local" swedish test..

Not that it matters much, but what other businesses other than ISP's could deliver half of what the customer is paying for, and get away with it..

Sure some of you Virgin boys must be in the high 90Mb/s?

On the home broadband subject, apparently loads of Sky broadband boxes and tv boxes are installed wrong (the plugs into the wall are the wrong way round or something) and simply swapping a couple of connections around gives you much better internet speeds, worth a look for anyone with crap Sky broadband speeds perhaps?

I'm with Virgin on their 60mb service.

We get a stable 48-58mb depending on time of day etc. - we have the option to go to 100mb too, but our existing connection is plenty quick enough for the time-being!

Lovely jubbly

Since we are a 50mb virgin customer, we are due to get a free upgrade to 100mb in the next couple of months.

Currently it takes less than 5 minutes to download a file comparable in size to a HD movie, but of course is not a HD movie, or any sort of copyrighted material at all, because that would be bad!

Mine's really slow as I have to run a long cable from the front room to the back.

Probably about 38 rpm, is that a speed number?
