BT Infinity ping & speed tests Sidcup

Has anybody got any speed and ping tests from this area, I'm on this exchange and I'm thinking about jumping over to BT from virginmedia.

I've been predicted a lowish speed, however I'd rather have more stable connection free from high amounts of jitter, which is making online gaming impossible.

One of those bb graphs would be ideal.

EDIT: Nevermind saw the title...

Does the jittering happen during certain times of the day? How is your PC connected to the super hub?

Edit: I'm currently on Virginmedia 60mb

I'm thinking of signing up for infinity from VM, I'm not on adsl and wouldn't go back to it either. I had bad speeds on BE using adsl.

I had a look at the whole sale website it said I'd get upto 23.3mb with 5.6mb up on fttc.

I must be quite far from my local cab, the only thing that worries me is the upto part, my speeds on vm aren't too bad it's just unusable whilst gaming online, the lag is terrible.

This is how my connection looks, usually it looks worse on the weekends.

I just want to make sure that if I sign up for BT infinity it won't be the same.

It looks like the typical congestion problems you get with Virgin. BT Infinity should do a lot better, they do a much better job with many customers in the same area.
