Luton, LU2 postcode seems to be updated head of schedule (June)

Speed down 9414.07 Kbps (9.2 Mbps)
Speed Up 466.90 Kbps (0.5 Mbps)

reading taken at 8pm tonight using the thinkbroadband speed test. had to restart my cable modem this morning as lost internet connection, i suppose it had something to do with the upgrade?

You can download when you are not there, you know, if you work nights start it up before you go to work - it should be finished when you get back - ????

If you are downloading after 2100 hrs, then you should not (yet) be subject to any STM, and even if you were it 'only' lasts for 5 hours, so I'm surprised if it is still in place after a 'night shift' - STM may not be the problem you are having???

Not if your downloading you cant.

Multitasking while your stm'd is impossible, it cripples the connection way beyond belief.
