Thanks. Ran with following results....

1) London - D/L 9858 Kbps U/L 282 Kbps (recommended server)
2) Moscow - D/L 8991 Kbps U/L 461 Kbps
3) Bucharest - D/L 2582 Kbps U/L 488 Kbps
4) London - D/L 9850 Kbps U/L 491 Kbps

Good results. I've tried various other on-line speed testers with similar results and also started a trial game download from microsoft.com. This gave a D/L reading 1.2MBps. Again good results

Ran broadbandchoices speedtester immediately after with result of 3.2Mbps. I'd like to know why such a disparity especially since pre STM, D/L speeds seemed to be reported accurately (?)
