broadband speed?

It depends on several things. Where you are living & your distance from the exchange, If you note it is up to 8mbs.Im up to 8mbs but only receiving 0.5mbs because of living too far into the country. Phone & have the exchange distance tested. (thats the BT Exchange.Thats your main telepohne line.) Afterall BT own all the lines & they install them all. Im with BT & they still cant help me!!!!

there is misunderstanding here . the speed u r reading on ur computer screen is not the broadband speed .. its the wireless speed or LAN speed . If u wanna check the speed of your internet use this website http://www.speedtest.net/

NOTE: just to let u know that u will never receive 8mgb or u might get close from that number in the late hours due to a lot of factors ( number of users in the same area , the land lines ability and the honesty of the broadband company ;) ) good luck

listen here,,,iwent witrh pipex and they stunk of poo, i also went with 2 other who promised me 8 meg and came no0where near,,,the only one that has given me full 8 meg is bt

At peak times you will get less

I'm on 16mb with sky buy i get 5mb at best!

It's pathetic but you're not the only one with this problem
