Virgin Media UK Broadband Speed Test

07:39.52 - Saturday 7th July 2007   (Link to This Entry)

I've reinstated the old Broadband Speed Test since NTL were rebranded Virgin Media, and put it back online at www.speedtest.d04.net for you all to play with. This is seriously broadband only, and it's really only good for Virgin Media Broadband users.

K and myself have definately been upgraded to the new 20MBit package. Upload speeds (using other broadband speed tests, since mine only does download) have topped out somewhere around 720Kbit and my downloads this morning look ike this:



It may be that I am limited by my cable modem. Despite being good got approx 40MBit, the Motorola Surfboard SB4100 that us oldies (K, BB and myself) use is getting on a bit. At this time of the morning I can consistently download at 12MBit using IE, with FireFox being slightly slower.
