Thanks Darren,

What Bill makes sense, your test results are displaying over 67mbit but the fastest speeds i'm seeing are around 25mbit, this ties in with the download speeds of 1.8 - 2.2mb, this speed felt like the connection was at the limit, I certainly wasn't seeing speeds representative of a 67mbit connection - so it seems I'm missing out on around 40mbit somewhere along the line?!?

Hope this helps.

Yes although we are not finished yet, if you get chance tonight would you be able to do some more test, Canterbury and Ashford are poor speedtest servers. Europe is often less busy.

We have made some changes this afternoon and would like to know if your connection seems better or worse.

Thanks in advance
Darren

Hi Darren,

I've done some more speedtests and the results are much the same as yesterday at around 20mbit up and down. So I don't think it's any better or worse at all. The European servers tended to be a bit slower with higher pings (as I would expect being further away).

Cheers
James

Dunkirk now has the new equipment, upgrade on its way

Hmm, is it possible to request this or are you guys picking names out at random?

It sounds pretty damn good, even if it "only" gets the 20mbit/s that SlimJ is saying.

Hi William,

Drop them an email and ask to see what they can do for you. I requested to be upgraded back in July when the upgrades were announced but I've only just been upgraded on to the Staner transmitter in Thanet (are you in Thanet? you sound familiar and I have a hunch you were in Lydden?).

Connection is really stable at the moment, connection speed seems to be around the 30mbit mark at the mo with well seeded torrents downloading at over 3.3mb/s

James

Hey,

Yeah I emailed you a year or so ago to see if you were experiencing the same issues I had.

I'll get in touch with support and see what the situation is. How's your latency when you're doing these speedtests?

Regards,

William Farren

Good to hear.

I presume you've got the backhaul to do now then customer CPE's to follow in the future.

Will the new CPE use the existing power supply (box) as the current equipment? I ask as my current power box has a slight loose connection. I contacted Jonathan several months ago but never got round to swapping it over as I had forgotten about it until now.

Yes, we are ready to install end user upgraded cpe's. There is a bit of a backlog at the moment but it will be soon. You will get a new power supply / poe

Its not quite random, there is method behind the madness. We will be in contact when its your turn, at the moment we are testing the higher speeds.
