1st 512K took 11563 ms = 44.3 KB/sec, approx 365 Kbps, 0.36 Mbps
2nd 512K took 2468 ms = 207.5 KB/sec, approx 1710 Kbps, 1.67 Mbps
3rd 512K took 2313 ms = 221.4 KB/sec, approx 1824 Kbps, 1.78 Mbps
4th 512K took 2250 ms = 227.6 KB/sec, approx 1875 Kbps, 1.83 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 1444 Kbps, 1.41 Mbps

Blimey - looks like I'm getting the same speeds I was getting when I was on 10mb now

Just got it now. I'm in SE15 - South London - Peckham area.



Hopefully the crappy browsing performance I've been getting over the last week or so will sort itself out now...
