Nice result, strange how the upload suffers as well via the wireless link, can understand the download being restricted by the wireless, but surely the upload should still be able to achieve around 17 meg via wireless?

Running Speedtest app on my iPhone whilst stood next to the wireless-n router I get 28Mb/s dl and 18Mb/s upload. As you can see below, the ThinkBroadband speed test over wired ethernet is less optimistic than Speedtest.net

There's been some sort of problem with the upload test on Thinkbroadband for a long time, every body seems to end up with the wrong upload speed, been many a thread on these forums about it.

The flash upload can cope with well in excess of the FTTC/P speeds from open reach.
Java appears to have been nobbled by all its updates of late, and influences of AV suites.

Java appears to have been nobbled by all its updates of late, and influences of AV suites. But the BT speed test uses Java and reports sensible upload speeds.

Different ways of running the upload.

[cough] So which way is correct, when their way agrees with tbb Flash? [/cough]

Yes it is - OR provide the cable.
If you plant to move the modem (or to get the OR installer to place it further away) you should get a "home wiring solution" which is an extension cable.
It is free but needs to be ordered by the ISP from OR. Some ISPs do this automatically.
Thanks
I've got an RJ11 -> RJ45 cable that I made to connect from the ADSL faceplate to a neighbouring network socket, which ends up at a patch panel. In another room a similar cable connects from a network socket to my router, then at the patch panel end I've connected both network sockets together. Works well so I'm hoping I can locate the VDSL modem somewhere out of the way using the same technique.
Well I've allowed it all to settle down and relocated the VSDL modem as described above and it all works perfectly, no reduction in sync speed or performance and one happy missus who couldn't bear te sight of a cream box with green flashing LEDs in the hallway
