I've just uploaded a 188MB file in 4m 35s.
Not sure of the maths on this one, anybody tell me what my upload speed is.
Thanks

ah ok, 188MB = 188*8 = 1504 Mb

4m 35s = 240 + 35 = 275 s

so 1504 / 275 = 5.469 Mbps

I think?

That sounds about right, matches up to the 5-6 Mbps i've been seeing on most speedcheckers.
Still well off my ip profile of 10 Mbps though...

That'd take a bit of nifty timing, given triggering the downloads and the short time taken for uploads smile.

Hello, I think you can take the BT checker with a pinch of salt!
My Infinity - from last May - has been between 29/37 down & 6/8 up (using TBB monitor tool). I was told to expect approximately 29 down & 5 up: obviously these were conservative figures given by BT in my case. The first time I checked it when I initially had it installed was 38.79 down & 8.3 up: I think the lower figures I have are more representative, rather than the initial high reading. Either way, both you and I get more than was promised... Does anyone - you, perhaps - need the 80/20? Even using iPlayer/Netflix and others, I've found that 30ish is fine. Cheers, Les.
