Re: 100mb in Lincoln

Just thought I would post up the speeds I am getting.

During the day till about 5pm I can pull the full 100Mb (from download tests, speedtest.net gives 97Mb)
Around 5pm it starts to slow to about 70/85Mb (from download and speedtest.net tests, http://speedtest.magnet.ie/ sometimes give better speeds, maybe less busier then speedtest.net)

Sometime in the evening it goes into the 90+Mb, but I think it be due to the network more busier.

Upload the most I have gotten is 8.60Mb, in the evening it dips to about 7.40Mb (these speeds are from speedtest.net)

Jitter is between 3ms and 13ms.

Pings depend, I have had as low as 18, but get higher on the London server, on speedtest.net

When using speedtest.net try and use the London, Namesco server, as there are 2 servers for London.

I am hoping the upload will get better when/if VM do any work in the area.
But I think it the max at the moment, I can pull.

I am in the LN6 area, off of Hykeham road.

Maybe I got it wrong, she did say it was the first time she had done a 100Mb upgrade/order.

But I am sure she said the £30 was for coming out and new equipment, that is when I said I already had the Superhub.
