    Not mine, but my dad's - 0.15mb/s down, 0.09mb/s up... Closest server... Islamabad. His 6 month tour in Afghanistan, took him 3 attempts via speed test to get the results. Will try and get a print screen!

    Why is that? Can it be fixed? Why does a 13Mb download speed equate to 1.5 Mb in reality? Where is this 13 Mb speed that Speedtest tells me I have?
    Are you confusing megabytes with megabits per second? ISPs and speedtest show megabits, browsers tend to show megabytes.

    Re: Your broadband speed - post here

    You're getting confused between megabytes and megabits.

    If you have a Virgin 60mb line for instance, that's 60megabits, so in theory the max download you'll be able to get it 60/8 megabytes


    Currently with Virgin, with a 60mb line, and here's a speedtest:


    GG Virgin.
    800+ ping in games is an interesting experience.

    What's the point in having fibre if you can't even make use of it?! What's the FUP re: "heavy" use?

    If it happens outside of those limits, it's likely another problem, possibly area over-contention.
