How fast is your internet according to Speed Test?

[Rakk]

Looking at their traffic management page here:
http://my.virginmedia.com/traffic-management/traffic-management-policy-thresholds.html
the throttling isn't actually too bad, though recently I've never hit mine (I'm on the 60meg package) - admittedly the only time I do big downloads is when I buy new games - which isn't that often:

Looks like the throttling is only 10-16% which isn't as much as it used to be.

To all of the Virgin Media customers boasting those 100+mb speeds:

How long can you download at those reported speeds before you hit your traffic management limit in peak usage times (16:00 to 22:00)

Just curious.

haven't hit it yet.

I'm still arguing with myself whether to upgrade from 60Mb/s to 120Mb/s for the extra £7.50 p/m.

I have it. And I make almost no use of it, apart from doing speedtests every now and then and smiling to myself.

My speed test results are,
Download speed:1.987Mbps
Upload speed:0.912Mbps
I checked my internet speed test here ScanmySpeed.com
Is this good or not?

it seems slow, try speedtest. It gives you a score and provides relative performance.

'We've got great news for all customers on our broadband tiers of 30Mb and above. After listening to your feedback, we've decided to stop applying our traffic management policy to download speeds.'

Those who have 80 mbs in workplaces have to share their server with hundreds of computers. I work in a school and get over 100 mbs but also share the server with 100 plus computers so it is actually very slow!!!

 

[Alan16ac]

I can't get Virgin, wish I could. This is EE 80 meg, disappointing, this is at off peak too.

Mines Sky....... Can't get fibre optic in my area but much worse places have it

 

[nathanjrb]

Not bad, room for improvement. I like how the upload speed is faster than the download...

 

[PokerFace]

Same here,5.3 to 7.4

Down to 3.5Mbps but still slightly better (glass half full)

Not bad, room for improvement. I like how the upload speed is faster than the download...

Holy upload Batman!! :batman:
