Whats your upload speed?

Here is mine on an up to 20mbit fibre download service

I get on average 10.52mbit upload which is pretty good on a 20mbit line I think!

67mb down and 17-18mb up, on 80/20 rated FTTC

I'm on fibre as well, which is pretty obvious as good ole 20mbit ADSL usually topped out at around 736kbit/s upload so you would never get on average 10.52mbit with it.

Pretty poor if the service is 20/20.

Its not! My ISP only quotes the download speed of up to 20mbit. I only found out the upload speed after it was installed and for the first month or so topped out at around 2.23mbit/s then suddenly rose to over 10mbit/s one day and has remained there ever since.

To me its a 20/10mbit service.

Well at least it's quicker than the 1Mbps down and 200Kbps up at the old house!

I assume its fibre as that upload speed although not great is better than what good old ADSL could attain.

I know some people living near me on a different ISP who have 50mbit/s down fibre and they only get 900kbit/s up!

I had less than a meg down for 5 years

This is perfect for me.

Prior to subscribing to my current fibre service, I had a WiMAX connection with up to 4.5mbit down and 0.5mbit up with a ping time which fluctuated between 90 to 130ms so coming from that is a major upgrade and I am happy with what I now have. Ping time to google on my fibre service is 48ms.

Hmmm that seems to be really slow if you are supposed to be getting 120mbit down. Are you connecting via wireless or Ethernet cable and if the former try with an Ethernet cable.

That's a hell of a difference. I went backwards, I only experienced dial up as a child but went worse than that in this current house but then it was fixed to around 5mb but we could get 80 but 40 is enough for just me, I'm the only heavy internet user in the house.

i'm using an Ethernet cable

my area has congestion/high utilization issues

nick.lidgett · 6 Sep 2013 at 18:38

3 mb/s up, which i think stinks considering i have got 60 mb/s down.

Ah that really sucks! Are you still paying for a 120mbit connection and if so perhaps you should downgrade, you don't seem to have much to lose.
