I'm using an NTL:200 modem and getting wildly fluctuating speeds.

My own test is using something like Azureus and grabbing programmes from UKNova. I can see other peers getting speeds of over 1meg - yet I don't seem able to get anything over 350k. I have tried all sorts of setting to no avail.

If I use Robin Walkers speed test, I get anything from 2 to 10 meg within the same test. It seems too random.

I don't really know where to look to grab something I know would top me out at maximum speed just to see.

I'm in Manchester and notice others with the same modem and living close by are getting maximum speeds no problem.
