Internet Speed at my New House
« on: 13 April 2015, 20:48:33 »
Hi all.

I've had no Internet connection until tonight due to moving house. With all this new technology changing all the time I'm a bit lost off.

What is a good Internet connection speed these days?

This is what I'm getting.

What you have there is three times BTs Infinity and, as it says, better than nearly 80% of the UK. Should be more than fast enough for 99.9% of people..

Well that's good. Slow connections are really annoying.

Just shy of 100mb, excellent speed that Kate, I'd be happy with a quarter of that around here.

Those Virgin customers not on cable will only be able to dream of those figures now with Talk Talk...                                                                    In November 2014, Virgin Media reached an agreement to sell its ADSL business to TalkTalk Group, allowing Virgin to focus on its cable broadband offering. Customers are due to begin transferring to TalkTalk from February 2015.

Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.

Here in N Lincs only have adsl aka pony express via an old BT exchange. When I lived "in town" Diamond Cable had been introduced circa 1995, now known as VirginMedia and understand their broadband speed(s) are good ?
