what do people not understand about speedtest.net
Listen i worked for VM Tech Support and cannot stress enough.. that WEB URL Speed tests are generally designed for ADSL.
If you want to do a proper test go to
http://gamefiles.virginmedia.com and download a game demo
The Link Duplex Speed shouldnt really be played about with if you dont know what you are doing. There is a few times putting that onto FULL has disconnected me.
there is an extreme amount of people who dont check the obvious before flaming @ VM and blaming them for their issues when infact sometimes things are hardware/software related....
I had a router that only supported 10 meg when i was on on 20 meg.. guess who supplied it .. TELEWEST!...
I binned it and got myself a linksys and have not had one issue to this date.
(however i have since learned there has been a recent firmware update for it on VM's Website)
