20MB BB up/down speeds

Hi folks, Just signed up to the 20MB service and was wondering what down/up speeds people are getting? In particular im interested in other 20MB users up speeds the most i seem to get is 90kb/s (off peak or on peak) which does seems a tad slow.

Cheers.

You should get about 2.3-2.4MB/s down and about 85KB/s up. This is after overheads.

You should be getting this off peak, but between 4-12pm you will be getting 500kb's down, I think the upload is the same.

All this will be on a good day, you only have to look around the forum to see that everyone doesn't get these speeds.

to the forum anyway.

Re: 20MB BB up/down speeds

Thanks for the responses guys, the best i have got so far was 2.0mb/s down and after coming away from a 2MB ADSL connection where the STM throttled down to 5-10kb/s 6-11:30pm i gotta say so far so good and i'm glad i made the switch to VM.

Cheers

Wrong. I'll let you use the search function to find out why.
