Re: Virginmedia on bbc this morning

Correction, it was not 15 seconds it was around 5 seconds but considering he done this early evening, basically rush hour, that wasn't too bad. The 10MB test file from the BBC does not stress the 50 Mbps connection and barely has enough time to ramp up the speed which is a shame because it doesn't show the 50 Mbps product for what it is.
