My down profile is 35333 but I usually get around 32000 on the BT speedtest.

Agreed about the other testers, for some reason the tbb tester doesn't work too well with FTTC. It's not the tester itself (that can handle 100Mbps or more without working up a sweat), I'm reasonably convinced that BT do something weird with the routing.

Expect the checkers to update before then. Unless the work is scheduled to take that long.

I'm sure the first thing on your list to do when you got FTTC was vote on my survey? laugh

Have you stopped laughing at getting megabytes per second download?

The flash tester is often said to work better.

On BE the two testers give identical results, so generally the problem with the Java tester showing slow speeds is down to something between TBB and the ISP being tested.

On sky broadband here, get speeds around 10 times slower with TBB speedtester.

No idea why. It shows me sub 1 mbps normally yet 1080p youtube, iplayer HD etc all work and my downloads are over 1mb/s
