Slow speeds

[bbxxl]

I used to get 50Mb on my wired connection all the time but recently it's been getting slower. I was getting 30 then 20 and having just run the 50M speedtest from this site my results are:
Test started, please wait .......

Mon, 08 Nov 2010 18:44:38 GMT

Test 1: 2048K took 1133 ms = 1807.6 KB/sec, approx 14461 Kbps, 14.12 Mbps
Test 2: 2048K took 1094 ms = 1872 KB/sec, approx 14976 Kbps, 14.63 Mbps
Test 3: 2048K took 1057 ms = 1937.6 KB/sec, approx 15501 Kbps, 15.14 Mbps
Test 4: 4096K took 2332 ms = 1756.4 KB/sec, approx 14051 Kbps, 13.72 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 14747 Kbps, 14.4 Mbps


Version 1.51 : To repeat this test from the source server click here.

Over the past few weeks it seems to have declined - I have been using Speedtest.net but using the test from here has only confirmed their results.
Any ideas why it's slow?
I'm in Woking BTW.
Thanks

Post your modem stats.

And use the london server on speedtest.net as aberdeen for example cant handle anything over 20

There's the problem, you need a tech out to adjust.
