is that worse or better? :erm:

That is 15-18meg... looks like it is coming from local cache as well, try a ctrl + f5 to get more accurate results.

Robin's speed test cannot be considered reliable for 10Mbit services, its' sample sizes are too small.

Suggest you try ADSLGuide or a different speedtest.

Another reminder ... this thread is for reporting your modem model number, the region you live in and the speed you're getting. Nothing more. All general discussion about NTL 10meg should go here.

I've just deleted another nine off topic posts from the thread. Come on folks, it's not that difficult!!!
