I have been activated since Monday 2nd October at lunchime(wasnt on at 10.40am when I checked, but was at 11.30am!)

Anyway, the connection is quite good, my pings remain low, even in peak times, and strangely I have a reverse of the normal situation, its slow(about 3.2 meg) in off peak, mornings, and goes up at 6pm and up and up and gets to about 6 meg around 11pm.

This is EVERY day, it could be the training period, my downloads are low speed though, unless I pick a UK website where I do get good speeds of 500-700k(normally 500-600 though) any non UK is from 50-200, no matter where(though European ones are ok)

Again pings are as low as 15-20 on CS:source, and max of 50 on Medal Of Honor, only bad game is WOW and that is bad for everyone, and me getting ping of 90, was still good as most people I was questing with, who had AOL or such had pings of 150-200

And it goes as low as 50 on that too(50 seems to be average for most games at all times)

That seems about right tbh, im literally under a mile away from my exchange and i only ever get 4mbps at peak times, 6mbps off peak early morning and if im really really lucky 7mbps off peak of course - usualy i get 3mbps tho

Yeah maybe, it did go as low as 340 though, when it was pouring with rain on Wednesday all day, and gradually when it  stopped raining it went up by 1000 or so an hour.

Generally the lowest it goes is 2.9 though also goes around 3.2 a lot.

considering your still in the 10 day training, you can expect to go slightly higher maybe, i dno but those are still good speeds for daytime  8)

I think its hit and miss with Max i live literally 70 metres from my exchange my window faces it i went on max in august and my speeds reached 5Mb in the mornings only around 2Mb in afternoons and fell almost every evening to below 1Mb sometimes and that was regular (i put it down to contention as im in central London) untill last week now they have really got going i rarely go under 5Mb now even at peak times so its taken all this time to get going for me anyway will it last? time will tell.
