We all need a light hearted read now and again and he provides it.

Laughter is the best medicine they say!

Ok, time to calm down please people. Remember we have rules about insulting other members. And let's try to stick to the topic, assuming there is one.

I have my frack hammer ready for anyone who doesn't want to play nicely. You have been warned.

Here is my virgin media £100 in credit!



No activation fee, no installation charges a credit of £70.00 back to my account for my 100 Meg

Revert back to 30 Meg today:

Why in hell did you 'go back' to 30Mb again!!!! Thought you were happy that 100Mb was working fine!

I hope they decide to hold you to your contract this time and don't let you change tier any time soon.

Apparently going 30M -> 100M -> 30M -> 100M -> 30M in the space of 3 days, while singing the praises of 10M.

Don't need 100 meg, what the point ? as downloading is now throttling by traffic shaping. £45 standalone is alots of money for 12 months. 10 Meg is faster enough for me.

Priceless. Both the reaction it gets and that I can easily imagine it would happen as the company is stupid enough to waste their engineers' and customer support agents' time, along with refunding £70 that was never charged in the first place.

I'd have thought you guys would have had cause for concern from the very first sentence in the very first post of the thread.

I got 100 Meg finally arrive here today and here is my wifi wireless speed:

96.45Mbps over wireless?!

I never believe him I just find him to be amusing.

That's fine with me as long I am honest!

Here is my 30 Meg: View My Video

I'm getting bored now.You are going to have to come up with a better joke next time..and it's got to be about more than what Broadband speed you may have as you appear to have done it to death.

I'll give you 8 out of 10 for amusement and one of these.

Ignoring the person making that claim, it's quite easy to push 150mbps+ of TCP throughput on a decent wireless 'N' setup.

[Ignitionnet]

With zero interference in a Faraday cage perhaps.

2x2 MIMO maxes at a unidirectional 160Mbps, in controlled IEEE lab tests. Hardly easy to replicate at home.

[qasdfdsaq]

Hmm interesting. I've managed 203mbps unidirectional (UDP) at 2x2 MIMO, using standard consumer kit (DIR-825 + Intel 5100 client). Better may be possible in a more optimal configuration as there were various limitations in my setup not related to the underlying technology.

I may have mis-quoted my own number on TCP throughput though. I managed 106mps TCP on 1x1 (non-MIMO) @150 rate and 137mbps TCP on 2x1 @300 rate, but was limited by CPU on one device. Extrapolating from my other scaling tests, 250mbps UDP and 210mbps TCP should be possible with better equipment and drivers. I saw a big drop in efficiency in the 2x2, 40Mhz configuration but this was seemingly the driver/CPU limitation as neither 2x2 or 40Mhz on it's own showed any drop in efficiency at all.

Mind you, 3x3 client cards are quite widely available and 3x3 APs/routers are just coming into the consumer space now, I'd be curious to see how they perform but early reports suggest they're even more CPU limited.

Got a reference to those IEEE tests? I'm surprised mine are so different, considering.

[Chrysalis]

ignition to be fair I can get over 100mbit raw throughput on my home wireless also, on my laptop.

not with the superhub tho, this is with a router that cost me over £150 to buy.
