Consistent speed throughout the day, never throttled during busy periods or if I use it too much at a certain time (LOL, Virgin, LOL), unlimited downloads, £10 a month.

I thought BT only did up to 8mb broadband?

And what option are you on to pay £10 a month?

They are (very) slowly rolling out up to 24mb BB.

As for the price, my contract was nearly up and I agreed to stay with for another 24months.The bump in speed was done free of charge a couple of weeks after I agreed to stay with them. 8-)

Should be getting up to 24mb sometime this year. 8-)

Your upload speed is 5 times my download.

This is the best I can get, tends to be slow between 12pm and 12am. Suits me though for night time downloading.

Utterly kills the convenience of Steam if you think you might buy or install a game to play that evening.

Yep, we're with Shitscali too.

Our line is capable of 7MB (last time I checked) and our package 'is up to 8MB', but strawberry float off do we get that. Our internet gets capped horrendously in the evenings.

However, we were going to cancel our subscription on Friday, but postponed it and now I am downloading at almost 300Kb/sec at peak time. Hmmm.

Just finished downloading the BR rip of The Crow.

Throttling?

LOL. 8-)

Seriously, your well within 'drive home from the pub distance' and your connections faster?
(Even though it says I'm fifty miles further away from Dublin :fp:

)

Especially your ping. I shall never play you 1 on 1 again sir

To the losers with crappy speeds, I'm getting this on the Mini9 doing 80 on the M56.

Shouldn't you be paying attention to the road?

It's measured in bits not bytes.

No they're not.

It's usually a little faster than that too.

Not really very accurate though. I've often downloaded at 11MB/s and uploaded at 5MB/s+. Still, can't really complain. x

That's insane :lol:

50mb upgraded yesterday

PostRe: Your internet speed by **jamcc** » Sun Mar 07, 2010 12:21 pm

Internet has been absolute garbage the last few days. Almost dial up speed. The Tiscali (now TalkTalk) man from Mumbai told me that there's been an outage near me and "engineers have been sent out to fix the problem". Yawn.
