I'm getting ridiculous results on MB's speed test whereas Speedtest.net is giving me reasonable results. Also linking to MB's forums is painfully slow. Is it just me or are you guys having a problem?
 
Who's your ISP and where in South Africa are you situated?

If you post a Speedtest.net result image, then we will know those details...
 
I'm in Cape Town Webafrica is my ISP

Speed.net results:
IP_ADDRESS TEST_DAT TIME_ZNE DWNLD_MBS UPLD_MBS LATENCY MSSERVER_NAME DISTANCE_MILES

MyBroadband speed test results take forever, with my international results showing a ping of 172ms,
a download speed of 0.19 mbs and an upload of 0.41 mbs

I hope you realize that Speedtest.net can provide you with a link to the image so that you don't have to copy and paste garbage text like you did...

Once you've completed the Speedtest.net test, click on the 'Share your result' button, and then click on the 'Forum' tab before clicking the 'Copy' button.
Next you simply paste it in your forum post.
eg:
 
Thanks. :) First time I've needed to copy the result.



Doesn't change the issue that there seems (from my tests) to suggest there was something wrong with MyBroadband's speedtest. South Africa is giving an accurate result now , but International is still a problem.
