Re: Understanding speed????

Click on

http://gamefiles.virginmedia.com/blu...es_sp_demo.exe

and then

http://gamefiles.virginmedia.com/blu...ll_demo_us.exe

save them anywhere on your computer dosn't matter.

Leave it a min or so.

And if your useing Ineternet explorer you should get a box that look like this:



Post back what it says in Transfer Rate of both downloads. i.e: 1.72MB/Sec once you've done this you can cancel the downloads.

Remeber though its peak time now so you may not get the top speed but you could give it a try. otherwise try at night or during the day.

Hope this helps

And just to prove how rubbish and unreliable online speed tests are, heres a speed test I've just done using Broadband Choices. As you can see. a big difference to what I was getting a few mins ago.

PS. Can someone tell me what what 1.72MB is in Mb's please I'm never too sure but would say at a guess around 17Mb
