Well either there is a problem when testing at over 2mbps as we both had similar results or there is a problem when coming in from other ISP's.
Its upto you what you decide to do.

Nice, but then your extra 7 Meg costs you another 27 quid a month - WHEN it works at that speed all time.
Im not denying that cable has the ability to be better than ADSL, and im in no doubt, because i've seen them, that people on here get more than what i get, but its not as stable and speeds fluctuate wildly from day to day or even within the same day. Which is why Sky IS coming out on top during the surveys, its more consistent on average. (see link at the start of the thread).
What im saying is that on average VM customers on the top package get 11mbps, on Sky its around 8mbps. VM costs 37 quid a month, Sky costs a tenner.
Even if you include BT line rental its still 17 quid cheaper, for that you can chuck in the Sky Base pack and get telly too and it'll still work out 50p less than you pay for broadband alone.
