Re: 20MB - 50MB Upgrade

Here are pings to bbc.co.uk when not downloading :

Here is a result from speedtest.net :

https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2009/10/4.png

and from the site you linked:

http://www.broadbandspeedchecker.co....s/14199516.jpg

although if I run multiple results it fluctuates quite massively.
