I think that confirms that it is indeed just congestion. I will phone Virgin again tonight when the Internet slows down again because they may not be aware of congestion somewhere along the network.
Sorry I'm confused. If they ran a speed test and got 20mbps, that's a problem. But if they ran a speed test and got 200Mbps, then yes everything is fine - which did they do?

And just to be clear, I mean they ran a speed test FROM YOUR MACHINE, not some (non-existent) speed test they can run from their own side.

Forget about your work machine, that is not in scope and "logging into it" (Assuming a VPN) is a different can of variables.
