How can i check my sync. I have the home hub 3 and that does not show the sync speed

It isn't the router that gives you them on FTTC, it is the Openreach modem. But Openreach have locked it down so you can't get at them.

The Huawei 612 has been hacked to get at them, and other things. That's how we do it. The ECI modem which is used in some areas has not, so we can't get them from that.

If you have the Huawei 612 as on this page, then the instructions are in the panel on the right, and the required firmware is in the next link down - "Unlocked firmware images".

If you do that then you have command-line access to full stats, and there is also a set of graphing tools available elsewhere, (not on that site that I know of), to do a running check of various things.

If that's all beyond what you feel happy doing, then the nearest you get is running the BT Performance tester, which when it is in a good mood gives you the IP Profile. That is just above the speed you ought to get on real downloads.

Thanks for your help

My IP profile has now been increased and speedtest.net shows 74.9 down and 16.2 up
However, the BT speedtester shows no improvement on my old speeds, and the Thinkbroadband tester shows only 45 down (a slight improvement) and only 6 up (was 8.4 before according to speedtest.net)
Are the BT and Thinkbroadband testers unable to cope with the new speeds?

The order tracker shows my upgrade as completed, but there's no change to my performance. I still get 21mb/5mb, even after a restart of the VDSL modem. That sucks!

nice speed im still at work so will have to check when i go home what speed im geting.

Don't understand why the TBB checker still gives such a slow result though?
Speedtest.net is giving consistent results anyway
And the BT checker shows my profile has been updated, even if it doesn't return the big numbers in the test!

download 2 or 3 of the 1gb files on here at the same time might get an idea of what speed your really geting.
