Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades

[Incog - I've removed your IP from the results, & also done a bit of tidying to the text formatting (as it messed the page up) & removed a couple of unneccessary bits...actually, the ping & tracert bits aren't really needed either...]

ntl:World - 128k service Server Download:
31KB/s (248Kb/s) - Superb - much higher than expected

Download through Transparent Cache:
28KB/s (224Kb/s) - Superb - much higher than expected

Download through alternative Cache (webcache.bt.net):
0KB/s (0Kb/s) - **** SERVER ERROR: Unexpected error from Server****

Looks better than with the other test (well, for consistency...no wildly varying numbers...although it is only a couple of results)

But it's still not quite 300k.

The 3rd one only has an error because the test tried to use the BT webcache. The cache can be changed in the speed test settings to whatever you want (e.g. an ntl cache).
