OH dear,
the first test gave 607K/152K, the BT test gives an error(surprise!), and the last one gives 411K/78K. This is, err, cr*p. Its has got a lot worse recently, is this due to BT home hub and BBC replay stuff soaking up available bandwidth ?

Remember, you pay for the bandwidth of the pipe (i.e. 8mb), at no point do they commit to actualy send 8mb down said pipe....

Yea, but the Vodafone Broadband Signal comes through the window! from the nearest Radio Site, so if they tell you its XYZ Mbps then it should be XYZ.

Makes no odds, the radio setups do much the same as wifi, they back the speed off as the signal quality drops (BER rises).

Quite possibly although in theory video on demand can be sent without a massive server over head as the actual amount of requests once its running tends to be pretty small.

1.1km from tel ex,

BT 6.7m down 876k up..

Pretty pleased with that... 8-)

Sometimes though, being a Max product, i.e. rate adaptive... have had less than 1m down!!!!!!!!

Here are my results (I am on a 2Mb service from Nildram)

Download Speed: 1922 kbps (240.3 KB/sec )   Upload Speed: 244 kbps (30.5 KB/sec )

Quite happy with that.

No, sorry disagree, The whole idea of, when it was lanched GPRS (2.5G, 56kbps) was it was a Radio signal version of ISDN, so you ever get it or not. when 3G was lanched (384kbps) it was on a different carrier signal, so again you get it or you revert back to 2.5G (56kbps). Now we have 3.5G (HSDPA) which is a compressed version of 3G but still on a different carrier (Vodafone currently run a Max of 7.2Mbps) but its still Radio ISDN (although they call it Broadband), the point is, that thier advartising 7.2 Mbps but only supplying 3.5 Mbps, if the signal is crap it will revert back to a lower carrier of 3g or worse case gprs (2.5G).

Unlike WiFi which sets its speed on error bit checking which it feels comfortable with.
