TBB Speed Test.

I like the TBB speed test as it tells you what you are getting not just your maximum speed as others do, for quite a while i have been getting 25 - 28 Mbps but for the last few days i have been getting 35+ Mbps (see below) as i cannot see TT suddenly giving me a speed boost for nothing i am wondering if the way the speed test runs has changed.

This is the TT 38Mbps max package.

And the connection speeds of your router?

Nothing changed in terms of how the test does its testing

There's 101 reasons that could make your speed tests jump up.
DLM changes, vectoring on the cabinet, crosstalker being on holiday or ceasing their line.

We really need to see xDSL statistics from the modem.

There's nothing Talktalk could do to incase speeds like that even if they wanted to. They have no control of the DSLAM or DLM, and they do nothing that could have limited the speeds in any way.

This is my speed its been the same for a few months -

Link Rate: 9994/39999 Kbps

So entirely possible to get those sort of figures from a speed test

Thanks, even better today, a post about talk talk speeds that isn't negative has got to be a rare sight.

I have just upgraded to max speed BB (80Mb) and some speed tests show 77/15 but the TBB test are much lower at around 38/12.

When I was on a 40/10 package the TBB test always showed a slower speed than other test sites.

Any thoughts ?

And your modem is synced at what speed?

http://tbb.st/1533744670804811855 is your test and it looks far from healthy, which explains the slower speeds

A good test would look like http://tbb.st/1533657179522923755

My reasonably new Netgear modem/router connected directly to my NET5 shows a connection speed of 75.89/20.00

Speed test from the speedtest.btwholesale web site and from the further diagnostics button shows

Ipprofile of 73.46/20
Download speed of 106.75, up 8.08

Max achievable down 73.46, up 20.

Interesting how BT show a download speed of 106, much faster than the modem sync !

Looks to me like you're using Chrome as your browser as this is a known bug for Chrome to give much higher results from the BT wholesale website.
