i also tried using the wireless while he was there and that was 20mbit, he said that it may be a faulty wireless router - so he went to his van and got a dlink 615 and said i could have that to try.. he didnt take the netgear wireless so i got two wireless accesss points etc and two wireless dongles but neither getting above 28mb/sec on speed tests on 4 seperate machines.

he also told me to download the TCP/IP optimizer from speedguide and set it to max and apply. i have tried this and its made absolutely no difference to either my desktops or mine or my GF's laptop.

virgin guy just said he proved the network works ok (on the secret site) but in the real world its still slow
whats this secret site he used, must be tweaked so it always shows the maximum speed you should get
