Netbooks on their way out… official!
Thinking of a change.
Awesome.
You lot are getting done lol.
And who ever designed this site is obviously more orientated around advertising than usability.
Couldnt find the fkin speed test on here amongst the 5ooo adverts.
What a load a #ank.
Sort it out :-p
http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest.html
Would definitely appreciate any feedback on it. National average so far appears to be 4.1mb!
It gave me results of anything between 6.2 and 12.2Mb - I'm on on 10Mbps at the moment. I started a big download in usenet to test and I got a constant 9.4Mbps
Eventually got fed up with the crap service I was getting off them and switched to Sky.Should have done it a long time ago.
Up to 8mg with sky receiving constantly 4 mg,cant beat it.
Check it out here
Simple and useful. Also you can embed the speed checker on your site if you want for free
Grumble. Gonna call tech support and throw two phone books at them.
Thanx once again

Happy :)
They quote up to 8mb download but best I get is 175kb/s.
Desperately need to switch!!
date 11/11/07
down speed 1784 kps
up speed 161 kps
happy with the download speeds but unsure what the up speeds mean they should be more than 161 kps on 2mb broadband i would think.
anyway great speed tester
Speed Downloading: 1120 Kps ( just over 1Mbps )
Speed Uploading: 631 Kps ( Just over half a Mbps )
Service provider: Virgin Media
I pay for 20Mbps @ £37.00 a month
What a rip off!!!

The figures speak for themselves.
Since Virgin's main client base are the 2MB users, it is not surprising those users are less effected. A Senior Virgin Technician told me, one of the reasons why Traffic Management was introduced, was to make sure 2MB users were not given a bad deal because of 4Mb and 20Mb users using the bandwidth.
Haven't got an issue with that, however, since 4MB and 20MB are paying more, they should receive at least a 50% discount on the additional amount they pay each month, representing the amount of time during the day where their service stinks. Fortunately, I use the Internet mostly during the day when the speeds are much quicker. I feel sorry for those customers who are paying for the faster services but do not get to use the Internet until they get home from work, or whereever.
Unfortunately, I believe all the main suppliers are as bad as each other about their over rated, published speeds. It is all hype and it is about time the government did something about it. However, since it is all about "big business", not much hope there I am afraid.
You can test this out by using this speed test after downloading the limit (350). Try it and see for yourself.
What I have discovered though is that VirginMedia play hard and fast with their own rules. Usually what happens it that your restricted download speed (if you used up the limit during the day) is not reset after 12am, but usually much later, say 8 or 9am.
I've complained to Virgin about misleading customers. And I'd advised everybody to complain to the advertising standards agency, as well as OFCOM.
Allthough when i download from rapidshare (example) my download is going at a much higher rate than this.
This test done today (17/12/2007) at 17.30PM:
Download 352Kbps
Upload 50Kbps
This is very common. Considering we have an Xbox 360 Live connection, speeds like this means online gaming is impossible.
684kbps
I'm on 20meg package, so it's not too close to my limit, they don't have the capacity!!
Speed Test reveals intermittent speeds from nearly 2 Mb - 520 Kb for downloads, uploads always seem to be around 208 - 512 Kb.
Have been with Tiscali (in their various guises) for some years now, have had drop outs from time to time, possible cable or exchange faults, going through a good patch at the moment, if you have a laid back attitude then would recommend them, if you must have a connection which is perfect all the time - please let us all know where we subscribe!! Regards Terry
4mb/s but i never download more than 200ish mb/s, i game a fair bit so do i need to get virgin cable? or will bt or sky LLU-based stuff be a better bet? why are we not getting at least asdl2? only two places in uk cant get it yetand south bucks/berks border is it!!! i pay the same to bt as everyone else and they wont do anything!!! praps i shld refuse to pay my bill.....
My one complaint about Tiscali is their Customer Services. You have to ring an 0871 number, go through several long menus and are then left on hold for ages. When you do get through they can only answer one query and can't transfer you to another section, so you have to go through it all again! I found a landline number on "say no to 0870" which is for Customer Retentions, that gets answered immediately and the staff are much more helpful (just say you are fed up with the service and are thinking of switching).
Download 160Kbps
Upload 207Kbps
Surely that's fraud?
Regards Terry
Interestingly complain and you are told only BTs broadband speed checker is their standard and others are rubbish, only trouble is by signing with talktalk you no longer have a bt line and they refuse to check, Catch 22 or what!!!!
Malcolm
The guy with atrocious pronunciation kept arguing " Dat you rrr a heaby downloaderrrr." I am not and I have to pay for the call to be told that I'm restricted!?!?
Rubbish, lying, *!ck?*s! Shame because up until this happened, I was quite happy and had a v+ box installed (brilliant!) but now they go and ruin it. I'm leaving them but where to go?

Utter crap...Yeah I am sure this is fraud or false advertising...I'm going to give trading standards a call see what they think.
download = 4576kbps
upload = 696kbps
According to Speedtouch which monitors out TALK TALK connection status we should be on 1Mb/s constantly. The actual speed on this test site came in @ 856kb/s and 205 kb/s for download and upload respectively.
Customer service from TALK TALK is very poor and the connection frequently "breaks" in the course of the day prompting a manual reconnect.
I'm not tempted to pay for (slightly) higher speeds !
Thanks for the speed test i will tell my friends and cut out that virgin mess, when you ring them up you get someone who can speak english about as good as a one legged man in an ass kicking competition, if your lucky enough to get through, pain staking agony on the phone and they the ones ripping me off! thanks for the site i know what im doing now..... in writing !!
Changed t0 Virgin in December (upto 8Mb). Since then my download/Upload speeds sit around 272 - 688 / 124 - 320 kbps. Talk about misrepresentation!
It's about time someone got the ISP's to be honest about the service they provide.
Got a BE Broadband package Pretty cheap - Unlimited downloads - and through just the BT Line. Wee icon at bottom left of screen says I get 54Mbps This seems absolutely massive when other folk are mentioning just 0.5 - 1.5 Mb. Am I getting mixed up with my Bits & Bytes?
The 54Mbps you are seeing is the speed of the wireless network the homehum has created for you i.e. how fast it can transfer data to your PC. the speed of your internet connection is totally different and you need to do a speed test to do this (although I seem to remember the hub displaying a speed in it's admin screens)
I've been paying for 8Mbps and only receive about 1890 kbps download, and 300kbps upload.
It is hopeless trying to complain, the telephone number on there web site has been changed.
When you finally get through to there techincal people it is costing 10p connection plus 25p per minute and then to top it all you are now talking to an Indian lady who takes one through a proceedure were by you are on the internet checking your download speed.
The lady just could not understand that in the daylight hours my download speed maybe 1.8meg but evenings it my drop to 0.8meg which is hopeless.
Her final remark was that when it happens again I ring there technical.
Not a cat in hells chance.

virgin media
but then i do work for them and know how good it is :)
if anyone wants 20mg bbi then i'll be happy to sell it to ya
I am with AOL Wireless! It says 54 MPBS!
Its awful slow and im lucky to get to get 2 days of fast internet!
This is my results... Download 120 KBPS... Upload 336 KBPS
What the hell is wrong! thats not even a Meg !!
I would be very greatful if someone could tell me:)
Liam
The 54MBPS is the speed of your wireless connection, not your internet connection. The speeds you have quoted are low, but I would perform the test over a wired connection before drawing any conclusions.
Not sure what speed I was told i'd get but I'm with BT and its never had a hiccup in the 3 months I've had it in. Before that I was with Orange and had nothing but problem after problem.
Jitendra
600Kbs-800Kbs on a broadband internet connection thats supposed to be 3600Kbs.
If you complain to the ISP they just say it must be your computer, but my processor speed has been measured as 2.6 GHz.
A lot of programs are running on my machine and pausing the firewall got the interest of security shield, and then theirs defender with a firewall and IE7 with a firewall and anti phishing and everything, so maybe these are part of the reason for slow downloads which make it difficult to watch a video.
was disconnected for 10 days before Tiscali repaired it.
very disappointed.
Uploading is at 352!
2mb Package from Virgin/NTL.
Download 1.960mb
Upload 1.95mb
Consistantly excellent.
New customer Very Happy for the past 2 months.
BS, Thanks for that, I'll now have 2nd thoughts about upgrading.
I get download at 904kbps and upload of 223kbps - steer clear of TALKTALK. Bunch of liars!!
8 meg promised..... you decide:
D/L was 3080 average
U/L was 196 (!)
leave the choice up to you, but consider the connection charge (£30 last time I looked),the upfront payment system and the hefty 18 month contract.
however, still cheaper than virgin, the phone line is excellent, not charged for their customer support calls, 3 hour free calls to other talk talk customers(!) and i don't have to have some useless drivel coming through my tv screen!!
Nice website by the way. Thanks, its on my faves now
It is if I bought a car advertised as having a top speed of 120 mph and found that it is only capable of averaging 15 on a good day, so I am preparing to sue 3 for misrepresentation if they won't cancel my contract. (See the Which? Broadband Report in October 2007 for how to complain to, and if necessary sue, your ISP).
Sky is the best.£5 a month for broadband.and £5 a month for unlimited uk phone calls. Love it!
Was with horrid Blueyounder/Virgin for 4 years.
Sorry to hear 3 is bad, it should certainly work all the time. However, there's no way I'd expect 3.6mb through a mobile connection, I think that's the current HSDPA theoretical maximum.
Download was 456kbps
upload was 326kbps
Maybe not a good investment after all!!
We had Sky before the move (and were quite happy) but when we told them of the move they said they couldn't provide a service for us in the new area. Then we suddenly got cut off 3 weeks before our move date - all they could say was 'Whoops'.
Outstandingly terrible customer service from both companies when things have gone wrong! Maybe it would help if the support teams on both companies actually spoke English!!!!
They told that they would have connected me on the 31 March.For a mistake(not mine)i was connected on the 20 April.So 3 weeks with no broadband.Their customer service was terrible and i could not understand most of the ppl i spoke to.Anyway after a week with them i can say fortunally that their services are ok.Phone is good and the average broadband speed is 3.5Meg download and 360 kbs upload.So is up to you.If you feel lucky is worth tryng in the hope that everything will work fine and that you do not need to contact the customer service.By the way im in littlehampton West Sussex
download speed: 11568kbps
upload speed: 989kbps
and i only pay £7.50 a month because im a 02 mobile customer
I'm approx two and a half miles from exchange.
I'm marginally better off than a neighbour using TalkTalk.
Maybe OffComm should persuade providers to reduce charges pro rata for speeds below 8MB.
Download Speed: 15800kbps
Upload Speed: 720kbps
I have the tv, phone and broadband package, and in total I pay only £31 per month, so I'm pretty happy with my connection speed.
My gripe is I'm on VM 2mb package today it was just under 2mb but the upload was only 244Kb.
Don't waste time complaining to your ISP you'll get nowhere... complain here they have reps in almost all major ISPs.
http://www.ispa.org.uk/cgi-bin/complaints.cgi
simply fill the on-lne form in, and the rep's will give whoever a kick up the backside.
and getting .05mbps
Im ring in up to complain to sky broadband tomorror :@
I'm getting less than 1mb
Time to complain, methinks
Which one is right, quite a difference, anyone else getting the same response ?
I have checked a few times and not changed programs that were open etc.. I even made sure all AV off to ensure best speed could be acheived, I have just moved to std Sky bundle from BT (for info).

1.8mb\s from 12am - 4pm
And thats 11days with being with them..
it seem to me that virgin will give you a half decent BROWSING speed but a pathetic ACTUAL download speed.
before virgin took over telewest my internet was MINT!!!!! i got what i paid for and that was ACTUAL download speed. it was also very rare for telewest to do down but virgin goes down every month or so and when they do get it "fixed" and back up and running surprise surprise my connection speed has slowed
I re-did the speed tests (1.3mbs) and phoned BT sales back - just happened to speak to the same guy. He basically didn't believe me when i told him the speeds i was receiving cos THEIR checks showed i don't go below 2mbs. I asked him what would happen if i did sign up for BT/Vision and found i couldn't watch any tv, and all he could say was that i'd be able to cancel the package cos BT weren't meeting their contractural obligation.
So......on top of getting crap speeds like almost everyone else on here, BT tell you that you're getting a higher speed than reality from 'their' ASDL tests.
Has anyone out there experienced the Vision dilemma?
It seems we're all getting shafted by the big corporates.
plan of my bsnl brodband is 999 per month....
could u tell me sm setting's to change the speed of my bsnl brodband
misleading leading adverts
i do not use download much so i think it is very good.
Virgin media is meant to be upgrading its packages soon.
10 MB users go to 20 MB
4 MB users go to 10 MB
2 MB users to go 4 MB
I'm not sure if it's true or not (it's what I got told from virgin media their selves), leave your comments on this please.

anyone else from Nortern Ireland getting better speeds?
I have been paying for 8MB Broadband for the past 18 months , Tomorrow I will change my IT provider .
I dont mind paying for a service, but I hate being Ripped off !
This confuses me
Of course I am still waiting for the call from Customer Services that I was promised at 11 am today
I am with Virgin too, and had the same problem.
I called their help line and went through bits and it turned out to be the Router i was using.
I have a 20mb connection but only got 1 - 2 mb from it! plugged the modem in directly and it went up to almost 19mb.
I now used the one they sent me and get around 5 - 18mb depending on time of day.

It has break neck speeds of :

Upload 169Kbps
This is using a 3G network modem which jumps from HSPDA to UTMS - GPRS <---gprs which is slower the a dial up connection.
and that was the best of 3 attempts
Funny thing I was told to update my firmware from a Virgin IT person and it was meant to improve my internet....but guess what it has made it even worse. it is actually slower then it already was. OMG!!
Anyways let me just say that virgin everything sucks even their service.
Hugh
I really should change service but I am waiting for some of my 24 month contract to go down to a year in which I will pay it out and go else where
does this mean that i need only to pay them less the Kbps in a money percent, that is missing.
from
one very unhappy customer.
I've been with Virgin/Ntlworld for only 4 months. I have the basic 2Mb and consistently measure in excess of 1.9Mb (via fibre optic cable). Are you on cable or BT landline. If it's a landline it's very dependant on line condition and impedance/distance from source. My daughter has that problem with SKY.

Is there any way of speeding this up?
oh nd btw i have a question, since my laptop is connected via the ethernet to the router, would it make a difference if i connect wirelessly aswell to the same laptop?
just wanted to know, as i have threecomputers on this wireless networks, and it slows down my speed vastly
The BT line is capable of carrying 6.5 Mb/s according to the BT test carried out recently, so talktalk give me half of what is available
Get what you pay for I suppose!
Did they tell you they have now taken over your phone line and it will cost you £70 to go back to BT then on to another ISP
Having only just managed to get on line this evening after trying and failing all day I have taken advantage of Talktalk's 30 day trial, given up and gone back to BT. for phones AND broadband - It works out similar cost as Tiscali long term..

Keep posting we will get what we pay for or crash the whole thing when we withdraw
We are not motorist subject to every whim of anybody who can think up a new way to get money out of us, we have rights and if they are not granted, cut us off, how many internet related big named companies could now survive without our custom online, let the money fight the money for a change, if they want our custom sort out the companies that provide it or go down, it's as simple as that
Sorry about that but after 20 months of the worst service you can imagine I'm getting out, free of charges as it goes thus saving between £70-£135
No clue about new service but cannot be worse than talktalk!!!!
Intrestingly talktalk have been on the phone constantly offering to renew my contract and give me a higher speed service, Ho ho, catch me once shame on you , catch me twice shame on me!!
Leaving on a jetplane, never coming back again, your service is so much crap
Much faster at loading than speedtest.net
Viewed the college network speeds and its into the 10,000+region.
Thanks
Much faster than speedtest.net
Viewed the college network speeds just now and they're off the scale :)
Thanks
ps: if you really want to check broadband speed buy a account on for example account on rapidshre and then try get any files from there and install dumeter to check the speed how fast the file will go. with me 8Mb from o2 I can reach 950 KB/s 950*8 - 7600 Mb . One big B-bajt = 8 small b -bit
I would not recomed that you use tiscali, go for someone eles. Tiscali is rubbish!

if your DSL connection rate is around or higher: 6432 kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 kbps(UP-STREAM)
it means thay can in cress the IP profile for your line to 6000 kbps
it will Actual IP throughput achieved during the test about 5500 +kbps
hope this helps
Have just done the speed test and mytwo scores were 560kbs and 326 kbs. What a pathetic service from BT. I also rang India and spent hours on the phone but to no avail.
They just do not care. Whaqt can you do!!!!!!
Pete
averaging around 1 mbs download and .3 mbs upload. Then
last week Virgin upgraded the broadband in my area to ADSL2 and now my broadband speeds are averaging 6 mbs download and .8 mbs upload. I had to buy a new router as mine went on the blink round about the time of the upgrade (talk about coincidence!) Anway - I'm still in shock - although I'm not aware of any dramatic difference when surfing the net - I do like running the broadband speed tests simply to see the upgraded figures! (Memo to self - must get out more!)
Hugh
I've complained by email (probably still floating in the ether somewhere as its taking so long to connect and send! i've phoned and spoken to a number of staff who tried to be helpful but were unable to solve my problems. engineer coming out Monday. Bet they say its something at my end but how can something like that explain bradband speeds ranging from 0.27 to 5. If there was a problem at my end then surely it would be constantly poor. we'll see but I think I'll start looking for an alternative.
Hugh
I get it through fibre optic cable. Its still very slow - 424kbps currently but best its been since this morning!
regards
Peter
I have now been advised after 3 days of telephone calls that the problem is with my cable modem and that they will chenge this when the engineer visits tomorrow. i'll keep you all informed.
I think that the speed tester you show above is more accurate as it checks the connection speed to more than one server, is that correct?
also it depends on your network card and what server the test is running from, i get a 6800-7500 most of the time, before they changed their picture (and possibly server) it never read above 4000. Please bear this in mind that your ISP will not call this test accurate and will not do anything about your speed if you tell them you are using a Internet speed test. Get an accurate reading by downloading an hourly widget testing it for a week then take the average!

On Three (Hutchison 3G U.K.) mobile broadband dongle, with only 2 out of 5 bars reception. Not bad considering max speed is advertised as 2700kbps. Have tested before with 4 out of 5 bars reception and got 3150kbps download and 706kbps upload. Quite chuffed with these results, would certainly recommend Three to anyone.

319 Kbps upload
Ditching BT ADSL was the best choice I've made in a long long while. Used to get 200Kbps download and 56Kbps upload on a landline! Awful...
I can take mobile broadband anywhere and its cheaper too!

think its time i tell my mother to switch
I am in Trinidad and Tobago and I suppose to get 2mb with double speed of about 4MB according to my package from my ISP provider TSTT.
At certain times I am not getting my correct speed of 4mb, that is during late evenings in the week and on weekends after lunch slow speed for the rest of the day and I call my ISP provider all the time they check my end and tell me the obvious my end is good then they tell me that they will check there side,guess what problem never resolve ,several times I call them,same service ,it not making any sense calling them and it is a speed problem on their server, I bet.
When my speed is slow the meter I use to use tells me I am getting 4mb but your meter confirm that i was right ,your meter read 1 -1.5MB when I getting slow internet speed,how I know is speed it is because of slow steaming of videos and pages taking a little longer not much ,longer to load and my c is fast and I clean my cache often.
YOUR METER IS BOSS it's accurate THANKS...I think that I will ave to switch.
