How can I get an accurate speed check?

I have a Linksys WRT54GS v4 router on NTL 10meg and I get the full bandwidth.!!

However 'Be' are in my area and I'd like to know what sort of speed I could expect from where I am in relation to the exchange, is there anything on the router that can help my get a better idea? Be are saying roughly upto 11meg?

Cheers

DOH!!

Though someone said there was a program within the router to get that info? Oh well....

I'm 1.33km as the crow fly's !!!!

May have a word with my next dorr neighbour and see if they have BB and whether I can jump on and text theirs?

Is there a good program or specific way I can test the SNR?

Sorry always been on cable so not up to speed with this ADSL stuff

Lol yeah I know the basic's of ADSL set-up just not the SNR's bits

Yeah its a bit of a pickle tbh :rolleyes:

Hmmm may wait for NTL 20meg and see what thats like, if upload goes up and I still get nearly full download I may be best to stay put!
