This is me now :-

Test 1: 1024K took 422 ms = 2426.5 KB/sec, approx 19994 Kbps, 19.53 Mbps
Test 2: 1024K took 422 ms = 2426.5 KB/sec, approx 19994 Kbps, 19.53 Mbps
Test 3: 1024K took 484 ms = 2115.7 KB/sec, approx 17433 Kbps, 17.02 Mbps
Test 4: 2048K took 1047 ms = 1956.1 KB/sec, approx 16118 Kbps, 15.74 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 18385 Kbps, 17.95 Mbps

Still plays games like a dog though.
Wish i got that on an average basis and yea your right, i shouldn't have to go through all this setup ordeal, i'm sat here rackin' my brain thinking "what have i missed" and i'm never like this... i'm a fairly experienced pc user. When i ring up CS to say there's a problem it always results in "Oh it must be your end.. blah blah blah". I'm ringing up tomorrow again and requesting a new modem, so ****ed off with this, if i get told my old dusty Motorola SB4200i modem is "totally fine!!" i'm seriously gonna reach down the phone and rip the persons throat out How can they denie me a new modem when they dont even use the sb4200i anymore when installing new connections and i'm paying £37 for p.o.s service and connection
Sorry as you can tell this is really pullin' on my last nerve, all i've been doing all night other than messing with settings is refreshing this page and doing constant speedtests to see if any replies / differences have happend
Let ya all know how things go...
