just been on the phone to ntl while connecting directly to the modem (not doing that again tonight, rather go out and buy a patch cable than move the pc again)
was getting the same speeds, used robin walkers site as the speed test. he did something like taking my modem off the server and putting it back on, rebooted everything and did the test again, 2 runs on the speed test site and it was fine.
after i hung up i did the test on asdlguide and it gave me bad results again, then i tried newsbin pro and got a slow speed like before, did the test on walkers site again and got quick results, strange....
i downloaeed a file from my webspace and it went at around 245kbs which is right as far as i know. i moved my pc back over where it should be and connected it up wireless again and now i'm getting bad results all the time. normally i'd think it was just my router but as they were off and on before i dunno
going to get a patch lead and try it again tommorow without moving my pc, too much messing about. might also see if i can get a laptop from somewhere to see if its a pc problem.
very confuddeled
going to run some scans like you said and see what it brings up but i've done a few last week and they were ok, never know though.
ta for help guys
