I did believe you - it's just such an amazing story. A crap VM modem, a private modem accepted into service, box & wires outside all over the place - and it was either the first modem faulty or the cable needed screwing in properly!

The only valid speed test is one like Rapidshare, or for VM network issue ttp://www.virginmedia.com/testmyspeed/manual.php. Speedtest.net is unreliable as you've seen.

You appear to be getting your 20 Mbps. But the engineer really needs to fix up the outside stuff (if it's yours and if it's VM's).

Keep us posted.
