it isn't your download speed which is the problem because you only need a couple of hundred k and not mbits, it is the ping and jitter which suck ass.

Power levels?

General Maximus · 11-11-2011, 18:36

i thought they looked ok

On my iPad2 I can't see any levels posted .. Another fail for this piece of crap apple device

General Maximus · 11-11-2011, 18:44

without checking to make sure I am 100% correct; your downstream power should be as close to 0 as possible but it normally works fine +/- 6. SNR should be 37+, mine is currently at 38. Upstream snr should be 47+, mine is 48 and I think up to 52 is good.

Quite annoyingly atm I have just noticed my downstream power creeping up to 4.5 and it has always been 2.something. Not good.

Have a read here if the link works:

Well, it is after midnight, maybe she is tired and can't give it her all?

sorry, couldn't resist.

Martyn · 14-11-2011, 23:17

again...

Martyn · 19-11-2011, 10:07

Looking good..

I would guess based on those speedtests that your area has some issues with a high contention ratio (some people torrenting a lot :P).

My only advice is to call Virgin Media and complain, but from what I've seen, if you're unlucky enough to have this issue it doesn't seem overly likely that it'll get resolved.
