just done a speed test

59.9 Seconds
42.42 MB
800.1 KB/Sec Max
724.1 KB/Sec Average


So on target.   :y


I still think everybody is getting thier bit, bytes, meg and gig mixed up!

Remember that download speed is measured in bytes as its a serial stream, files are measure in bytes as they are stored as hax values.

I suspect Skruntie is getting 724 Kbits per second download which in file terms is 90 Kbytes per second.

Two reasons why I suspect this.

1) If you were working in the Kbytes area then you would getting a sustained download speed close to 6.4Mbits....and given the loading on the internet servers and routers etc, I cant see that being achieved. Remember that 8M broadband is the pipe speed, not the through put speed!

2) Plus net are good, but not that good!
