My upload speed seems to be back up to what it should be from the last few months when it was languishing around the 11mbps mark

Was getting very low speeds for my 240mbp pack with UPC. so i purchased the Belkin AC1800 Dual band wireless router (down from £180 stg to £40stg on amazon.co.uk) ... 2.4 for some devices, 5ghz for ipad air, iphone 6, HTC One M7 all hitting 145-160mbp will hook up the MAc Book Pro and see what that hits but the wired desktop really went mad from 140mbp to 245... good stuff now
Belkin was up and running in less than 5 mins including a firmware upgrade... just put the Cisco 3925 into Bridge mode and connected the Belkin, job done.
Just remember to add a password to the admin panel.
Only thing i will add to this is the "Intellispeed" feature or QoS... I turned it on and input the speeds and it killed my download speed so i just turned it of again.
Last Result: UPC Speedtest
Download Speed: 245565 kbps (30695.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 25114 kbps (3139.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
Latency: 7 ms

Line syncing at 51Mbps/20Mbps but modem gives attainable rate of 99.9/33.2 so there's a bit more to squeeze out of it.
Got my profile upped today.....
Now syncing at RX:79283/ TX:20390(Kbps).
Not too shabby...:)
I'm 500mtrs from the cab btw.0 -

only live for 15 hours so far, but I am pleasantly surprised at the speeds I'm getting, the cabinet is a reasonable distance away, (about 350 Mtrs as the crow flies, but probably nearer 400 with the twists in the road and internal wiring here) and the copper has been there for nearly 25 years, and out of use for the last 5, we've just moved from Imagine WiMax to Imagine Fibre, apart from a glitch with the provisioning system at Imagine's end, it was relatively painless, and the increase in speeds is very welcome, especially on the upload side of things,
It will be interesting to see how it settles over the next while, but for now, I'm not going to complain. I certainly didn't expect to see pings this low, there's clearly not a lot to worry about on the copper side of things.
Imagine are using a Huawei router, which I have no experience of, the biggest hassle was getting in to it to change the DHCP settings to allow my fixed IP printers to work and not cause problems, and to allow my second WiFi unit to be excluded as well, so far it all appears to be stable.
The Smartphone is getting about 40 down and 12 up, which is also welcome, and that's on WiFi, using a TP Link router that's slaved with the Huawei.

Brand new Eircom connection in the town of Patrickswell, co. Limerick. The house had a very old phone line that was not used for a number of years, so the helpful Eircom engineer actually replaced the wire from the pole to the house.
No fibre in Patrickswell yet, but I think NGB is here.
It was a wee bit slower on the default server, I changed to the Dublin one because it's run by Eircom.
EDIT: default server, same connection:
