Is this a reasonable speed for 20Mb?
I've been getting similar speeds for ages now. I thought this was bad but maybe I'm being totally unreasonable.
Here's the topic I've been posting in on Virgin's forums since November regarding this and nothing has changed.

It's just the way it operates. Just disable while you perform the test and enable again after.

Re: Is this a reasonable speed for 20Mb?
a/v skew results because they first download to their buffer, and then the buffer sends to your browser, so the reported speedtest result is from the local a/v buffer. nod32 only does small bits in buffer at time so can still give accurate result.
