hi there,

for the last 10 days my tbb x6 speedtest results are always low where as the x1 test gets full speed

im on windows 8.1 but windows 7 has the same results

can anyone help?

thanks

EDIT* BT Wholesale speedtest shows 52meg download and always for the last month fails to obtain the further diagnostics i just get a generic error about try again in 10 minutes

I think the 52 Mbps is actually about right.

Some data on the test, pre-test ie. short burst at start recorded 12.6 Meg
Actually amount of data downloaded in tbbx1 was 23.685 MB
Five data points for tbbx1 ideally should be around 15-20
tbbx1 took ~2 seconds

Seems to be a couple of things, your pre-test is giving very slow compared to what is possible, we do not do this for HTTPx6 since we know that can be an issue for a few.

Why is pre-test slow? Possibly a slow TCP ramp or other issue, e.g. AV getting in the way or a bug in 8.1, but would expect a wider report.

You might want to try http://labs.thinkbroadband.com/ispa as a non flash/java version

thanks mr saffron

i have the beta version of flash also with latest firefox beta

silly me non flash test gets 65meg too
