2mb Connection - Upload Speed
For those with a 2MB upload speed what kind upload speed are you getting? In recent test I seem to be getting. (roughly).
Download Speed: 1845 kbps (230.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 229 kbps (28.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
The upload seems a little low.

Re: 2mb Connection - Upload Speed
The upload is always slower than the download spped. On a 2Mb account with Telewest the download speed is 2148k and the upload speed is 256k.
Yep it sucks, but TW services always do.

Nah 'up to' the stated speed, congestion, etc, can cause slower, no guarantees or promises 
The OP's download is a bit slow considering the 2148kbps cap on the download, 230k is slower than I used to see from 2Mbit DSL. Would expect 240k+

Re: 2mb Connection - Upload Speed
wow, so you guys all agree that TW provide 'standard' services :S
I only have the 1M(Broadband Complete) option, and i've been able to download at 5mbps during the past!
Hell I aint complaining

Re: 2mb Connection - Upload Speed
On my 2 meg line I've found it depends on the time of day. Between 6 and 11 in the evening I'm averaging 1946 / 220.
All other times I can get upto 2046-3000 / 240
I think kids should be banned from broadband when they come in from school, and goto bed early...like 7pm

Nope that's quite normal, the cable modem is set for 2148000bps not a straight 2Mbit, so there's where the difference comes from.
