Broadband Speed

[sjayne]

Can anyone tell me how to check my broadband speed? Thank you

I used this site -

http://www.uswitch.com/broadband/speedtest/?gclid=CIOetIqq7cACFQLJtAodDVwAGA

Got 2.34mbps - no idea if that is actually good though!

(And on further investigation, my results would seem to be a bit rubbish.)

Yours is quite poor 2sp, for comparison mine is 19.66mbps download and 1.4mbps upload on basic Sky Unlimited connection.
If you live in the middle of nowhere and miles from the exchange then there isn't a lot you could do to increase it.

We are rural, but not that far from the exchange, Daffy. My upload speed is 0.38...

I think we're only about 2 or 3 miles from the exchange.

150.76 download and 13.12 upload for me.

That's an impressive download speed, do you think it's a Record?

[hc4361]

No, it's not a record, baldric, most of my neighbours get the same speed.

150+ never come across that before!
