Well, what's your point?
Obviously your speed test result is going to increase once upgraded.

the thread had no point, but now the OP has posted a speed test result, I think the point now becomes "why is the OPs 50mb so donkey dump?"

I'm still keenly waiting for the latest OFCOM/SamKnows monitoring data, due to be released last month, as the one from 7 months ago shows the average speed on VM's 50mb service to be closer to 35mb.

Till I see updated data, I wouldn't say 44 is actually that bad.

qasdfdsaq yours still congested?

Re: 50mbs being installed today
 
It's not as bad now, seemed to have eased off slowly since that sudden drop a few weeks ago. On the other hand it's disconnecting a lot more now too, and needing a modem reboot almost every day.

How's yours? Sounds like the bonded channels almost entirely "fixed" your connection, with crappy jitter being the only big problem that remains.

Chrysalis 25-02-2011 11:37

Re: 50mbs being installed today
 
the bonding changed it completely. Even when I still had the very large jitter post 30mbit upgrade, I had stable download performance along with good generic performance, browsing, youtube etc. Then by coincidence not long after VM added a new upstream channel to my overlay port so now my overlay has 2 upstream channels, that made ssh way more useable. Load seemed to go up (a little, not much) on the upstream for a few days but now its lower again.

Downloaded service pack 1 of win7 earlier at solid 3.8meg/sec as well, felt very nice. No upstream slowdown either, although still jitter (probably will always be at least some there) its now not at a level where its a concern.

seems clear to me VM's problems have been stemming from a too small shared pipe problem since its early days (when was ntl etc.), I think upstream bonding cant come soon enough.
