I've mentioned a few times about getting poor results from the tbb speedtester compared to others, a typical test would give something like:


However, it has given good results when IDNet have been messing about with their routing. This morning there's a thread raising issues about routing to WoW, and a speed test gives:


I don't believe in coincidence when it happens that often, but why on earth should routing to WoW affect tbb speedtests? :dunno:

Anyone got any ideas?

Maybe coincidence or the routing to TBB has changed or is less congested.  :dunno:

Exchange is too busy at the moment to see what it's doing now, though it looks like it might still be OK.

Couldn't try earlier, too busy trying to give the kiss of life to the iMac, unsuccessfully. I'm on the MacBook now until the new one arrives.
