Re: What is acceptable ?
 

Thanks for the replies. Apart from saturday and a couple of hours late sunday evening (where even general browsing was very slow) things have been ok. Not full speeds, but few are that fortunate ;), however they are not cause for complaint. The quoted speeds in the OP were tested using the recommended methods. I am awaiting saturday to see if things are better.
