Tonight I decided to check so I downloaded the same file from 2 university sites in England, both sites downloaded at 1140 KB/sec so it would appear that the problem (for me at least) is not with ntl after all.
The Irish speedtesh has slowed down lately.The kbps speedtest page always sends enough bandwidth to test 10 mbps.You can choose to download the 14 meg file,it gives you and idea should be around 1200 kbps.
