I had the 50 meg fitted and don't seem to be getting over 35meg today is this acceptable or should i be expecting over 40meg.
This is the average speed i seem to be getting.

I think this is the better test to perform:

Please ensure when adding up the download speeds that you clearly quote MB/s or confirm that you've done the conversion to Mb/s when giving the aggregated figure. I divide MB by 10. In any case, please give the MB figure.

What about the speed test I suggested? I don't see how 35.31KB/sec translates into 28.41 Mb/sec. My rule of thumb is that a byte of data is accompanied by two checksum bits - something like that. So that means multiply KB by 10 to get Kb.
