whats the score Saint, are we all getting ripped off?  :glare:

If your on 4mg like me your upload is bad and your download is about right. My download is always 3.8mg steady as a rock so I think this test is a bit generous. Strangely I always get 4mg when I test with my IP  :) .

example: im on bitlord (acquiring) 17 episodes of "Thomas and Friends"  624mb. it took 13 hrs to D/L. All the way through the process my d/l was at max 87kb:- u/l was 14kb.

also this site hangs/freezes on several occasions...Outlook at times is like waiting for christmas to arrive. (i understand traffic volume etc..) but not on all apps?...in general i do not notice much difference between 4mg and the original 1 or 2meg.

it seems BY and their 4meg package is anything but fast to me...but having said that, im vague to say the least where computers come in. so..... :(  Ps where do you check your speed, apart from the link you put up mate)   see im that bad  :D

That will be their restriction (the download site) not yours! Try the site I mentioned and a 4.9gb dvd will take you about 3.5hrs.
