Good internet speed test programme or website?

Our line truely and utterly sucks.

We're supposed to be on the 24mb Be connection, and I'm running that test to find out we're getting about 1.3mb/s.

What else should I find out about my line?

That's about 12megs so not bad m8

Yeah 16Mb like you. The BT exchange is at the bottom of my street, maybe thats why?

Yep I guess thats it. I am close to the exchange, within 1/2 a mile but its not at the bottom of my street.

NTL was plenty quick enough for me and this is quicker so it will do me well and plus I have a much better selection of TV channels and am saving £25 per month, thats £300 per year, so thanks to SKY. :)
 
Here is my 4MB ntl line, this is done from my pc which is upstairs connected via wireless-G


And here's my dads machine downstairs connected via CAT5:



My 7yr old bro is playing nintendo on his PC so won't let me test from there :( Quite happy with my WiFi I'd say!
 
Gibbo im glad you posted this its made me rethink my reasons to stay with Virgin which im not sure why i even bothered with :confused:



That is 10mbit cable in East london at peak time,,, that is a good result trust me. Its closer to 4 usually. and that alone is costing me 28 quid....

Dont you have to pay for a BT line rental ??? another £12 approx on top of that

Cable uses proxy servers crappy DNS ones that take so long to flipping do anything (at least at peak times)

Did sky give you a Wireless router you say??? did it have an ethernet port on it? I really dont want to use a wireless one.

thanks.
