speed test result
Thu, 22 Jun 2006 14:18:07 UTC
1st 512K took 2172 ms = 235.7 KB/sec, approx 1942 Kbps, 1.9 Mbps
2nd 512K took 2172 ms = 235.7 KB/sec, approx 1942 Kbps, 1.9 Mbps
3rd 512K took 2156 ms = 237.5 KB/sec, approx 1957 Kbps, 1.91 Mbps
4th 512K took 2156 ms = 237.5 KB/sec, approx 1957 Kbps, 1.91 Mbps
Overall Average Speed = approx 1950 Kbps, 1.91 Mbps.
Can one of you clever chaps give somebody who does n't understand (me  ) a clue what this means?
I have just found out that for 6 months of paying for 2meg i was only getting 1meg!  and now ntl have said i have been upgraded to 4 meg. 
Does these results tell you what speed BB i am on?
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, but realistically, 2mb means up to 2mb.
The CS rep probably thought your area had been upgraded - that joy has yet to come.

Re: speed test result
Guys,
Sorry to sound dumb, but where and how are you finding out your speeds.

Re: speed test result
I live in the Bexleyheath, Kent area and am, as far as I know, still on a 2MB connection.
Thu, 22 Jun 2006 19:32:29 GMT
1st 512K took 1753 ms = 292.1 KB/sec, approx 2407 Kbps, 2.35 Mbps
2nd 512K took 1592 ms = 321.6 KB/sec, approx 2650 Kbps, 2.59 Mbps
3rd 512K took 1622 ms = 315.7 KB/sec, approx 2601 Kbps, 2.54 Mbps
4th 512K took 1573 ms = 325.5 KB/sec, approx 2682 Kbps, 2.62 Mbps
Overall Average Speed = approx 2585 Kbps, 2.53 Mbps
Either I'm doing well on 2Mb or am doing poorly on a 4Mb connection.
Can anyone tell me when my area is being upgraded to 4Mb please?
Thanks,
Martyn
