Confused

[link to this post]

Last week when I did speedtests it said my ISP was Cable and Wireless Telecom.

Today my connection went offline and re-connected, and now when I do speedtests, it displays as "Orange Home UK". Does this still mean i'm still on ipstream package?

Thanks

For starters, where did you do speedtest? Sounds like http://www.speedtest.net? Better to speedtest here at TBB.

It probably mis-looked up (whois) the owner of your IP addys or one ISP released a block of them to t'other and records are not up-to-date.

The same has happened here, it was always Cable & Wireless but now Orange Home UK. It does look like they've finally registered some IP addresses in their own name instead of using Energis/C&W ones.
