Holy Cr@p Getting 18 meg on sky!!

[Lupa]

Hey,
Ive been with sky for a few months now and had speeds around 13meg but latley the internet was messing up and disconnecting and so was the phone, in the end we lost connection alltogether. So I decided to go into my master socket and then removed the orange wire and cut it a bit(before it was falling apart and hanging by a thread) and placed it back on and now my speeds have increased so much I get speed results faster than my sync?? The dslzone website only reaches 15 meg but its almost my full sync speed!

Here is some results!! :

Namesco BroadbandMax Bandwidth speedtest | Test your ADSL connection speed



Maybe Sky are thinking of upgrading our speeds?

that shows 15/16MB, and no they're not upping the speed - enuff hassles on 16MB as it is!!!

thats nearer 13 meg there in real life but its still good for sky as most are lucky even to have 1 meg lol

we sometimes get people getting 900KB/sec on an 8mbps connection so not unheard of - u just have a very good connection it would seem

his my speed

Download Speed: 10657 kbps (1332.1 KB/sec ) Upload Speed: 605 kbps (75.6 KB/sec )


I only get that and im synching at
DownStream Connection Speed 12329 kbps UpStream Connection Speed 764 kbps
is that right or what?

[reddwarfcrew]

Your downLOAD/upLOAD rate will be anything from 70-80% of your downSTREAM/upSTREAM sync rate, so 10657 DL for 12329 DS is about right as its 86%!!
