slow speed
 

since i had my internet service cut off last week, and connected 2 days later,its running slow for 2mb service its running at 513.50 kps on http://www.dslzoneuk.net/speedtest.php
and 525 kbits robin.d.h.walker/speedtest.anyone know why its slow.I think they did not upgraded me when they connected me again,it was running on 2mb before they cut me off.
thanxs OTN

Looks possible. Are you on the cable modem? If so, click here: http://192.168.100.1 (may need to reboot modem for that link to work).

Username is "root" and Password is "root". Once in, on the left goto Operater Configuration and look at the Maximum Downstream/Upstream field. What's it say?

Your not the only one

my 3mb connection is shagged

Re: slow speed
 

yeah my 3mb is running at 2.4mb....how long will it take ntl to sort out the issue they are having with the 3mb tier :(

Re: slow speed
 

NTL really suck now, i suppose to be on 2mb im on 300k and they dorn't no why they keep boosting me, but all i get is register your computor and put your pid number in and password,they say there is major work going on, but said its finnished now,dorn't know why i should be paying for 2mb when im only on 300 K

Re: slow speed
 

probably served the file that the site test with from your local cache :)

try deleting temporary internet files and running it again.

Your connection is performing spot on (94% efficiency) for a 3 Mbps service.

:bigcry:

However, the other test I use gives:

Tue, 12 Apr 2005 17:40:26 UTC
1st 128K took 468 ms = 280068 Bytes/sec = approx 2330 kbits/sec
2nd 128K took 594 ms = 220660 Bytes/sec = approx 1836 kbits/sec
3rd 128K took 609 ms = 215225 Bytes/sec = approx 1791 kbits/sec
4th 128K took 672 ms = 195048 Bytes/sec = approx 1623 kbits/sec

:confused: There are obviously pitfalls surrounding different speed test sites.
