Re: Virginmedia on bbc this morning

The 10MB speed test was very popular. On the first day the BBC put this on their website I was downloading it in under 3 seconds but since then the download speeds have gone down hill drastically. The BBC said this is one of the most popular items on the BBC News website ever!

The filming was performed at a time of day the BBC's network would have been busy (7pm) so it's hardly a fair test and people need to realise the file is far too small to stress the 50 Mbps connection.

The laptops were using cables.
