Overall BB speed on the 10MB service is abysmal. Newsgroups max out at around 250k, Azureus is the same although it did spike to around 500k for about a minute. Browsing when either is downloading, even at max speed is still very fast, now it's very slow.

Speed test:

1st 512K took 3078 ms = 166.3 KB/sec, approx 1370 Kbps, 1.34 Mbps
2nd 512K took 1359 ms = 376.7 KB/sec, approx 3104 Kbps, 3.03 Mbps
3rd 512K took 1531 ms = 334.4 KB/sec, approx 2755 Kbps, 2.69 Mbps
4th 512K took 2266 ms = 225.9 KB/sec, approx 1861 Kbps, 1.82
Overall Average Speed = approx 2273 Kbps, 2.22 Mbps

And yes I am on the 10MB service:

Maximum downstream data rate: 10240000
Maximum upstream data rate: 512000

Edit - NM, seems to have righted itself.
