I don't think it matters when you are going with cable it's only ADSL that goes on distance as far as i know,

If you are in Morley,Leeds like your username says then this is the speed you could be getting https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2007/02/21.png;)

This is the best speed ive had,I live in Morley.

I live in Leicester too and the people I know that have VM 10Mb actually get 10Mb compared to the ADSL alternatives.....

I have 4Mb and always get constant speeds. I wish that they would upgrade the upload speeds too but I don't see it happening for a long time yet I'm afraid..... :(

Leicester is generally decent for speeds/UBR loads.

^Would be my best speed.

In practical terms tho, it's stable at about 7½-9mb in the day, and 9mb+ at night.
