when i select "what`s my proxy" i get the following answer:
You are using the `swan-cache5. server.ntli.net` proxy server.
I assumed that that meant that swan cache 5 is the cache that i was using, ie allocated.
Until recent upgrades at cwmbwrla whenever i checked `What`s my proxy` i got the answer that i apparently did not use a proxy and all worked ok.
I use the numion world test and uk test set to run for a minute in order to even out results, i ran the world test 8 times, resetting proxy each time to each of the 8 consecutive swan proxies and thus received the results posted.
I then ran the test again with same settings but with cardiff proxy specified and the result is obvious.
If i were to reset to no specified proxy i would be unable to use the internet due to the slowwwww speed, at present i am using cardiff proxy with no problems.
Therefore the only logical conclusion that i can make is the one stated in earlier post.
I cannot see any other explanation but am open to sensible suggestions.
