just ran a speed test from here and got the following results

Download speed 209 Kbps (socket test)
Upload speed 185 Kbps (socket test)
Quality of service 5 %
Maximum pause 1348 ms
Round trip time 8 ms

proves what i thought a poor service

wonder if the quality of service has anything to do with the 2 additional hops BT put in my route this last week in prep( i assume) for PHORM / BT Webwise

why have BT have put so many extra hops in my route to the net? 18 hops to get to google, used to be 14 a few months ago and only 12 on my ZEN line.

as you can see below i start in the 217.47.66 subnet, up to 217.41.159 subnet, then upto 217.41.171 subnet, turn round then all the way back???

i fail to see the logic of that route? and think it looks on face value as poor network design, and before you say off topic the only reason i can see for this is that they are preparing to put the phorm / BT WebWise kit on the 217.41.171.x subnet and having to route my traffic halfway round the country to get to it. if that is the case there is not way that route when combined with the 307 redirect delays will not affect the performance of my broadband when browsing, i am alreeady seeming delays

or is BT Retail already trialing phorm / BT Webwise covertly again??

and as hop 2 says kingston5.broadband.bt.net i assume i am on the kingston RAS and will be affected by the trial !!!!

please note BT and PHORM we are still watching you watching us watching you, with great interest when you make network changes
