Re: Thinkbroadband speed test improved
Sorry to revive this but i noticed somthing
http://www.thinkbroadband.com/download/ downloading the 1 GB file; the only way to possibly achieve even near to what ic an normally download from websites is using 'download them all' plugin on firefox which is set to download from 16 concurrent connections https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2011/06/5.png If i try to download from thinkbroadband normally https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2011/06/6.png Yet other downloads can get past 2 mb/s fine. https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2011/06/7.png https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2011/06/8.png It almost seems like TBB are limiting the speed per connection to virgin media? http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedt...1020129209.png https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2011/06/9.png ---------- Post added at 12:20 ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 ---------- Also downloading a single file 1.5 mb/s https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2011/06/10.png yet if I download 6 concurrent files they still all go arround 1 mb/s (all download speeds combined = 6100 kb/s) https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2011/06/11.png |
Re: Thinkbroadband speed test improved

Re: Thinkbroadband speed test improved
The ofcom reports are *exactly* what show VM are the worst at delivering full speed over single connections (i.e. without multithreading)
So how about you take a look yourself. ---------- Post added at 03:44 ---------- Previous post was at 03:42 ---------- Quote:

And the only reason the 2 other downloads i showed were slightly off full speed was down to the websites they were being downloaded off. Considering i can manage 4 - 6 MB/s downloads of a majority of websites; but then think broadband apparently being a leading online company for determining performance of internet connections cant pass 1.5 MB/s shows the problem is at their end. Here is a trace route to think broadband. I'm about 99.9% sure that shows the problem is their end. It just carries on with hops of * * *. completely outside of the virgin media network. Here is a screenshot to; as you seem like somone who would try and discredit copied and pasted stuff. Quote:

On this occasion the 1% wins. The tracert proves nothing at all other than a router in the path cba to respond to low priority traffic which is how your tracert is classed. That said I never get a decent speedtest result from TBB either so there is something wrong in the path or test. === Just tried this from my home connection and my own tracert looks fine....
