Thanks for that fire. Here are the results i get, not pleasant reading unfortunately:

File size transferred : 14.75 MB (15468724 bytes)
Total time taken : 38.94 seconds (38937 milliseconds)
Throughput : 397.0 KB/sec [Kilobyte-per-second]
= 0.4 MB/sec [Megabyte-per-second]
= 3176.0 Kbps [Kilobit-per-second]
= 3.18 Mbps [Megabit-per-second]

Well, the situation I have now is that two sites (here and kbps.co.uk) that say I'm running at 3Mb (approx) and two sites (irishisptest.com and adlsguide) that say I'm runnning at 5Mb (approx). Whichever is right, unless ntl install a SACM for free, I'm going to downgrade to 2Mb. However, having a problem in finding the right people to speak to at ntl at present.
