Download speed looks very good, David, I'll be round to connect. Upload looks slightly low, but I find that is usually the case with that site, certainly nothing to worry about.

Shows just how variable speed testers are, doesn't it.

Try and do a BT test some time, that's the arbiter.

cant ever get past given the phone number on this site

It requires patience, a knowledge of divination and a southerly wind. 8) Best time to try is in the morning, use IE not Firefox, despite what they say.

What Rik said.

The BT speed tester takes some perseverance (and that's putting it mildly) but it is usually the best indicator of speed.
