    I'm at work right now so I can't get my home. Currently on Cincinnati Bell(AT&T) Fiber optic.
    Their quoted speeds are 20MB Download and 5MB Upload. The last time I tested on speedtest I hit higher numbers on both around 23MB Down and 7Up.

    Bah, you're all sickening me with these great speeds :/

    I'm off to call o2 again, see if I can get to the bottom of this slow speed I've been getting.

    I'll do one from home (where this dongle won't connect, even with the ext. antenna) when I get back.

    Just to show everyone what UK based Virgin Media is capable of, my best mate was having problems with his 50Mb connection, so the nice people at Virgin derestricted his line for a couple of minutes and this is what he got:

    how much would you pay for that then?

    Pretty happy with my 20mbit Virgin cable. Bearing in mind this is the weekend in an area heavily populated by students...

    Nice download speed, but the upload speed still sucks donkey balls as with any residential connection in the uk.

    My crappy wanna be 20mb

    13.85Mbps is crappy

    right :rolleyes:

    Speed is decent, at least it's enough for my needs. For the price however it's outrageously bad, especially considering the %@$&#$?!$%!@%?@? monthly limit that I have

    For a connection that's supposed to be 20mbit, yeah it is. Compare to the image I posted above, which is the same ISP/Cable company and the same speed line.

    Average is 56.65Mb/s, but i'm only paying for a 20Mb/s connection and Steam only runs at 2.6MB/s, so me thinks speedtest may be having a funny moment...

    Such terrible speed. Going to be switching for 15Mbps service for the same price at the end of the month.

    Paying for 10/1, so this is decent!

    EDIT: Sorry for the resurrection here :p Found the thread again through search and didn't notice the dates :)
