I have been experiencing some poor d/l speeds recently so have decided to run a speed test. I've been on 10mb for a few months now and the speeds have never been as slow as this.

Here are my speed results:

Sun, 07 May 2006 11:43:21 GMT

1st 512K took 1937 ms = 264.3 KB/sec, approx 2178 Kbps, 2.13 Mbps
2nd 512K took 1625 ms = 315.1 KB/sec, approx 2596 Kbps, 2.54 Mbps
3rd 512K took 1343 ms = 381.2 KB/sec, approx 3141 Kbps, 3.07 Mbps
4th 512K took 2015 ms = 254.1 KB/sec, approx 2094 Kbps, 2.04 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 2502 Kbps, 2.45 Mbps

Anyone got any advice?! That was done with nothing else using the connection. My location (if important) is Derby (DE1). I'm also using a cable modem (one of the very first silver ones) and using ethernet connection.

Thanks

Tim
