Broadband Speed

[penelope2]

Can anyone tell me how to check my broadband speed. Have recently had fibre -optic cabling installed in place of copper and despite BT insistence that it would improve my broadband speed my computer seems a lot slower. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanx.

if your with bt contact them and demand a "Broadband boost" engineering visit - a bt engineer will then visit your house and sort any problems free of charge.
