Have you got the download right as it looks very slow?

Re: Broadband Speeds
 

Tried both.
1st one
Download 6724-Kb/s
Upload 375-kb's
2nd one
Download 5851-Kb/s
Upload 386-Kb/s
Ping 44
So which is giving a true reading, I've notice a lot of difference
when downloading documents, depending on the size of the doc, and what is on it.

Re: Broadband Speeds
 

These ping meters always give me a good rating, but my connection speed isn't always brilliant due to weak wireless signal in the back bedroom. Might be something worth bearing in mind if your results seem skewed.

It's good that they're trying to change ruling on advertising of BB speeds. People have been campaigning for it for ages; OFCOM have finally listened.

Neil I ain't got a clue hence the the thread, I was just reading about Broadband speeds and people not getting what they expected from there provider, I don't even know what speed I'm supposed to get really, as I have said when it comes to computers I know where the on button is, plus what people on here have been good enough to teach me. But to me my laptop does everything I want it too whether its right or not I don't know because I've never seen anybody else's machine in use
