That is incorrect. You just dug up a test I did on 4th. November. Play fair.

The actual test.


I quoted the burst figures. (Sorry) The full result is even more unrealistic! There is something wrong with TBB connections to VM and has been for some time.

The old test , you dug up, even on multi-thread gave me less than half of what most multi-thread tests give me.

Had not noticed the date, difficult finding tests with little info.

http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest/button/14798... the graph shows something is up, hence why we save them.

Multi thread is still doing better than single thread, the dip in the single is pretty classic of a connection with congestion, i.e. high start then fading away. One trick some testers also do, is start the multiple threads at different times, to exploit this effect to give the maximum result.

Feel free to ignore our tester, but I'm confident in it being designed to and is showing the effects of issues that do affect users of providers. If Virgin Media want nice results all the time, then there are options to move payloads closer to the customers, but those tests would then be excluded from the national statistics as its not a fair and even comparison.
