It's FTTP
Lol at that.
I'm nearly done moaning here.
Having reconciled myself to the fact that a VM connection needs at least 5 threads to demonstrate its potential for transferring data. 24 threads is optimum it seems. The question remains- Why doesn't the TBB speed test show at least some difference on a VM connection at different times of day? Is the connection quality so bad that changes on congestion make no difference?

ping bbc.co.uk averages 4ms at 21:00hr for packet size 32b, size 1464 gives 6ms
This on Plusnet's old network and fixed IP.
I'm not really too bothered by the absolute TCP Latency on the speed tests as I'm more concerned with the relative variations between tests. And the trends in the results.
Edit: to add some details

Can you show me where? Can only think of one where a regular got some cheeky attitude with winks and smiles, trace it back and you'll see why, no respect or politeness given in the first instance, then he wonders why he isn't treated like his majesty in return. I accept it's just his nature though, and I deal with it tongue-in-cheek actually, bless his socks.

... bless his socks. Case proven?

Okay have seen your BQM and still don't trust the flash answer. When flash was written there was very little consumer low latency connections, so was never a priority.
Remember BQM should be the same as what everyone calls a ping since it is using ICMP packets.

That answer would mean taking a known set of hardware to various places to test it and confirm everything.
Plenty of other people are seeing time based variations with Virgin Media, but it may be that your area does not have this as its so busy, or there may just be something wrong with the cable connection

To be frank your post is a perfect example, and given its a reply to a moderator could be construed as trolling.

As I said will look at in practice on a variety of devices and also since video streaming is not purely restricted to BBC iPlayer will look at what they are offering these days. Some streaming services use more variety of bit rates too, i.e. just because the BBC use one set of encoding rates does not mean everyone uses the same.

I was just pointing out a fact you didn't seem aware of given your advice, it's up to you if you want to revise it.
