Re: 20 Meg From June
Carl, why do you have a connection better then 16Mbps?

Re: 20 Meg From June
Why the Paris server? Wouldnt you get a better result using London or Dublin??

Re: 20 Meg From June
look, tired of this sky/vm banter. leave it out :rolleyes:
bottom line is - vm cannot deliver 10mb across its network at the moment. and the paragraph that states that in their results is a lie. period. now they have 4 months before they roll out 20mb. Will they have upgraded all over capacity UBR's before then? NO Will they have "teething" troubles on the 20mb rollout like the 10mb was with both Telewest and NTHELL ? YES The 20mb will attract alot more customers, especially high usage ones (which lets face it is the only reason for having such speeds) and before long their will be capacity issues once more. back to square one. And why attract high usage users if you are going to penalise them and throttle that 2omb form the word go? VM - What a set of ******s. |
Re: 20 Meg From June
VM can deliver the XL connection its just that at peak times the connection or should I say download problems happen "simply put" but the up load speed is fine.
I have both adsl and cable and at the moment. At different times they both suffer problems, I am just hanging around to see what happens in June with cable as I run a small game server and no heavy down loads, 20 meg sounds good I would love to know the upload speed. I know I should get a dedicated server from a company that can support the server but I like to be in control of it at all times in a manor I see fit and not the provider if you know what I mean (custom maps configs ect). Just my 2p worth.... For information my connection over the last week has been a solid 9.5 meg keep it up VM. |

Hey Locky, if you had paid more attention to the teacher at school you could have grown up to be a TelCo Engineer :D :D
......... there again, you are probably better off as you are, I have yet to meet one who isn't totally ****ed off with the job. |

Re: 20 Meg From June

Re: 20 Meg From June
Yes, it makes up for the poor ADSL around here.

My connection has no STM at all nor protocol based throttling. The fact that they see fit to have the STM at peak times only just suggests that rather than being a permanent selective measure to punish heavy downloaders they do not have the capacity to handle the traffic that customers generate so use this instead until capacity is upgraded. Upgrades are on the way I know, which is good if a bit late. STM shouldn't be necessary especially with the system in use in Warrington and the fact that that same system is offering 24Mbit unthrottled, shaped or capped in Sweden. Lots of people will I imagine be very busy breaking areas down for VoD and broadband upgrades. :) |

Speed tests are (when the server can handle them) nearly always 17Mbit or higher. That speed test was a little off, upstream is usually a lot higher, around the 1Mbit mark. Downloading legal content from newsgroups tends to tick along at around the 2150kB/s mark. ---------- Post added at 14:50 ---------- Previous post was at 14:49 ---------- Quote:
Dublin has been a bit indifferent on occasion as well. I'll try some tests later when I get home. |
