Ant your net is slow as well as mine, due to the failings of AOL crop. They have been up two no good and have even put my house into a new contract without are consent.

This is probably a more accurate reading -- the other is to Bangor , Maine , which is a new server (on-line last week) and only 50 miles away. Normally, a test to NYC is better.

Cable is ok -- I use it for internet plus basic service for TV. I also have DirectTV which is great (over 250 channels) and tons of sports. Regarding download/upload speeds -- Maine would be (in the overall scheme of things) a bit slow. The infrastructure in this area is old and while it is being upgraded its a slow process and not the best business investment ( low population density). Other areas are running 15 + megs down -- the big gripe over here is upload speeds .

Were talking UK DaBear, its the best thing you can get here and its cheap they do a 3 for £30 witch is basically Ur phone, internet and calls. Not bad considering i pay £30 for my broadband alone at the moment.

This is the result of my wireless speed through my Netgear 52mbit/s router and the one below is my wired speed.

Wireless


Wired


I'm a bit disappointed with my wired result, with my 20mb connection I expected alot more than that.

Given your result with the wired connection --- I would eat some ISP up , 50% of your bandwith dont cut it ( IMHO)
