Is USB 2.0 any good compared to Ethernet. As long as it could handle 1,260kb/s transfer speeds then it should be fine. I think it can handle 480Mb/s (491,520kb/s) and is it like what our internet speeds are i.e, 10meg line but 1meg download speed. Divide roughly by ten? Even at that it's 48Mb/s Am I right in saying this?

Re: Telewest/Blueyonder Speed Upgrades- Have you been upgraded yet???
 

In theory USB2 is capable of 60Mbytes/ps. Which is 480mbps.

You have a good point, however am i right in thinking USB is not full duplex?

Re: Telewest/Blueyonder Speed Upgrades- Have you been upgraded yet???
 

I think your right about USB1.1 not being full duplex but I'm not too sure about USB 2.0 and I don't know squat about full duplex, half duplex. Some learning is in need.

I tried to quickly google it while writing this post but could see nothing related to this subject except this http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robin.d.h.walker/cmtips/usb.html

Goddamnit, where's my other 0.1Mbps gone? :p

Re: Telewest/Blueyonder Speed Upgrades- Have you been upgraded yet???
 

I borrowed it,... hehehehee...

Very nice test there :)

Just upgraded to 10Mbps today, they charging me an extra fiver a month for 6months then its gonna be normal price. Took about an hour to upgrade and this is what I get.

Can't complain I guess...

Also got this score from adslguide.org.uk
But I'm using the NTL:Home Internet 120. Should I upgrade to 250? Will there be any difference?

Perhaps the Telewest/Blueyonder section isn't the best one to ask about ntl services, and to answer your question no, your service is spot on.

im on 10mb telewest but my upload is rubbish my down speed is like 9.2mb on the speed test but i dont really need that is anyone else around the same speed?

Re: Telewest/Blueyonder Speed Upgrades- Have you been upgraded yet???
 

The upstream data rate on the 10Mbps product is 384Kbps, which is relatively slow in comparison to the large downstream data rate.

And in reply to the first post by J.D: the connection speed itself is measured in kilobits per second (10240Kbps or 10Mbps), but programs such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and I imagine most other web browsers, P2P applications etc measure the download rate in kilobytes per second (the theoretical maximum for 10Mbit being 1,250KB/s or 1.25MB/s). Since there are 8(eight) bits in a byte, to convert between you two you just divide by or multiply be 8 respectively.

360kb up thats crap.anyone no how i can do a speed test without going through a pc so i can gt a true speed

Re: Telewest/Blueyonder Speed Upgrades- Have you been upgraded yet???
 

What do you mean 'doing a speedtest without going through a computer'?

Re: Telewest/Blueyonder Speed Upgrades- Have you been upgraded yet???
 

just a straight connection to something else because with pc there are things like spyware and files that slow u down when u doa speed test on ur explorer so i was thinkin if theres a way to speed test from modem to something direct for a more accurate speed
