Default Internet speeds

I'd be interested to know what kind of speeds people are getting against their quoted speeds.

Here's mine



That's 10Mb Virgin Media XL, using the London node to test

PlusNet, also using London (it recommended Maidenhead but as most of PN's equipment is in London I chose there instead).

This is our backup SDSL line as our main line is a bit **** at the moment. Good latency though



This is just our standard ADSL Line



That's our POS line - which is getting replaced by an NTL fibre soon!

Done to satisfy my own curiosity later when I do one from home, this is from my own DSL line at work:



Nice upload Will!

*whistles*

Okay, so that was from work. I can get quicker too from the data centre suite, here in the head office I'm stuck on our shared line to the DC.

Oh and to London:

I should be getting quite close to that d/l from home next week but I won't be able to touch the latency or the u/l

That's on Plusnet, on their "Up to 8MB" package. I generally get faster speeds later on at night (around 5500kb/s), but the upload and latency generally remain the same.

Looking forward to our 4mb fibre we're getting - still not going to be able to get one up from Jarp on the upload, however the latency will be very similar.
