Poll: What speed connection do you use?

[luggles]

Before - ADSL and frequent disconnects

After -

Hope it gets closer to the 80/20 I'm paying for as I'm less than 100metres from the cabinet, but it's only been a few days and at least so far its stable which i couldn't say about the adsl.

Still waiting on our upgrade to FTTP which is being delayed over and over

Seems my FTTP has been untapped to line speed recently. No extra cost, not complaining!

You won't get 80/20 exactly - there is some overhead between the sync speed and the actual data throughput - some of the BT devices have upstream QoS by default that prevent you getting quite the full upload speed in tests not sure if you are using such a device. Maximum data download rate is about 76MBit/s. You might get the upload to 19MBit/s with a bit of luck.

Much happier with BT than with VM.

Since Friday...

Hyperoptic in central London. It turns out that a ping of under 1ms reports as 0ms:

I used to ping 1-2ms to London datacentres on the 150Mbps service but it has dropped to below 1ms on 1Gbps - must be some internal routing thing for the restricted/lower tiers that was causing all of that awful extra lag.

This is mine...

BTW speeds go back down to normal on 3rd September.

Last test on BT

Switched to Plusnet

Waiting for the line to stabilize.

I know, it's a shame... But taste of things to come!

Recently had the 'you're prices are changing' letter from BT so decided to see if I could re-negotiate to the same or slightly lower price - I was on the BT Infinity 4 package at 330/30 (realistically 300/30) and so swapped over to one of their BT plus packages for slightly less than what I was currently paying on the Infinity 4 package. This new BT plus is suppose to be 330/50 - can't say no to more upload speed right?

Got switched over during the day and came home to find the faster upload - overall very pleased with the speeds!

300mb gfast from BT sync'd at 190 down and 36 up, same my line isn't clean but its good enough for me!

 

[-UnderClocker-]

90MB Down / 5MB Up

No complaints for me
