Telkom 4 Mbps speeds

The telkom speed test is unaccurate. It's not possible to obtain download speeds faster than what the line is capable of. Try the Gamco or Openweb tests. You'll get the best and most accurate results on their servers. ;)

I did the Gamco one as well: 5.19 Mbps
 
Still 4096...must be a problem with the speed tests...just wanted to check with other users.
 
Oh ok, thought maybe Telkom were actually upgrading the lines beyond 4096 now, too much to ask for I suppose!
 
Telkom:
Your line speed is approximately 6219.5 Kbps or 762.2 kBytes/sec
( Where kb = kilobits and kB = kiloBytes )

Gamco:
Your current bandwidth reading is:
1.63 Mbps

which means you can download at 208.94 KB/sec. from our servers.
 
Judging by sybawoods's results, I'd say the the Gamco test is much more accurate than that of Telkom.
 
telkom : Your line speed is approximately 3732.8 Kbps or 457.5 kBytes/sec
iburst :3.43Mbps
gamco: Your current bandwidth reading is:2.08 Mbps
 
Is anyone else experiencing poor results with the IBurst speed test? All others give good results but on their site it's much slower.
 
Your current bandwidth reading is:

1.78 Mbps
which means you can download at 228.25 KB/sec. from our servers
 
Estimated line speed: 354.8 (kilobits/second)
Estimated line speed: 43.5 (kiloBytes/second)

I wish I had a 4Mbps line!!!!:(
