How Fast is your Internet?

Re: Mod Chat Part 9!

29.5db! hells bells that is 2.1km from the exchange .. or a really shitty line lol.

you should have a consistent 16mb - 16.5mb down so a sync of 17mb-17.5mb would suffice.

unless they have seriously oversold on the contention ratio, which _could_ explain it .

I suppose a bad line is possible, but as said, it is fairly new.

The fact that it has dropped gradually from about 14.5Mb a few years ago to that now makes me think Sky may be 'managing' it gradually down.

I live 200yds from local xchange; I have an extension that Barratt put in when *they* cut thru the cables and nothing plugged in to my homehub (don't have a traditional type router)! Oh yea I have Vodafone sure signal plugged in via Ethernet.

You would be amazed at how many people always think larger is better.

You could well have been serious.

Regards wiring, I did try the router directly in the master socket by taking the faceplate off and plugging in there. With nought else attached.

Made little or no difference. :/
