Wow :O

Those are some seriously rock solid results :D
 
Second night in a row

Well this is frustrating

Last night my DL's flew from 18:00 to 20:00 and thereafter things just went downhill. I did report this to support this morning but have heard nothing

Tonight 18:00 to 20:00 - all systems go; from 20:00 and things become erratic with DL speeds all over the place.

I used to have consistently good speeds but this is not the case at present.

Very annoying and hope to hear from support soon and that they will get this sorted
 
I'm also having problems with my account, browsing seems okay but steam downloads drop to a crawl then timeout. Has @lantic started throttling accounts?

Pleas would you run the first tool in my SIG :) then post results here :)
 
Here's the results, what it doesn't show is how the international speedtest starts at 900KB/s then slows down. The average is 474KB/s but I'm sure a larger file would taper down practically 0KB/s and stay ther (from what I've experienced).

I'm also having problems with my account, browsing seems okay but steam downloads drop to a crawl then timeout. Has @lantic started throttling accounts?

No problems my side, running full speed (10Meg line speed).
Downloads did take a dip in speed a while ago, but back to normal after modem reboot.
 
@Carnajo, looking near perfect there.

International is at 474 on average, but that doesn't show the full picture, things start at 900 then drop down to 10 or so and even time out. If the test file were larger it would show a much lower average.

Tried a modem reboot, didn't seem to help.

Um, this is a little strange, changed over to google dns and now everything seems good again (it was on automatic dns from ISP).

FYI, I am using Unotelly DNS service, not ISP DNS...

And my issue appears to be back again...
It's really strange. Happens no matter what I try to download, a game on steam, a virus scanner update etc.

What do you get with a normal speedtest using the one on MyBB?

If you want to, you can PM me your account detail to test.
I am running at 70% of line speed at the moment on 10Meg line.
Usually gets 100% line speed, but could be the download itself.
