Re: Speed Test
netstat will not show you connected to a proxy, it will show you connected to the remote server, that's why they are called transparent proxy servers.

Re: Speed Test
yeah seems odd because once I used it when streaming of bbc and that showed the proxy but for websites it shows the website so does look like its using a proxy. I guess because it was faster then I expected I just assumed wow.
Out of interest can I have the code for the speedtest I may be able to host a link or is it private code?

Wed, 01 Feb 2006 21:30:57 GMT
1st 512K took 3015 ms = 169.8 KB/sec, approx 1290 Kbps, 1.3 Mbps
2nd 512K took 7203 ms = 71.1 KB/sec, approx 540 Kbps, 0.5 Mbps
3rd 512K took 2203 ms = 232.4 KB/sec, approx 1766 Kbps, 1.7 Mbps
4th 512K took 3860 ms = 132.6 KB/sec, approx 1008 Kbps, 1 Mbps
Overall Average Speed = approx 1151 Kbps, 1.13 Mbps
ADSL Guide
Downstream 1261 Kbps (157.6 KB/sec) 1361 Kbps (inc. overheads)
Upstream 327 Kbps (40.9 KB/sec) 353 Kbps (inc. overheads)
It says 1Mbps but browsing is more like 56K and that’s with no p2p software running. I've tried different proxies without results. Pings seem ok, tracerts can be a bit bumpy but not too bad. It’s been like this for a day or two but I won’t have time to call NTL until Friday.

Re: Speed Test
The test was only ever capable of doing download speed. Its possible the pcs you checked it on the broadband was congested or the CF connection was congested at the time.

It didn't like the gzipping when it was part of the page so I had to split it off as the pop-up.
