Tho it is saturday

Have to say I thought it would be better than that - to the best of my knowledge, UL have a 10 Gig connection to HEANet, with the max speed limited to 1 Gig..
(Now why can't I get that.... )

As far as I know network infrastructure is distributed across the campus to various buildings. There is probably some sharing of that bandwidth as a result.

Plus there's always a crap load of undergrads down the VAX!

Eircom 3MB , its still not right but better than I had before.

Performed within minutes from each other. Not too bad I guess, although it's a Sunday afternoon. I'll try it on Monday evening and update this post.

I hope this is the right thread for this. I have the following result on aspeed test. which is consistent for my experiance at home....I presume this is terrible !? I have a 3mb connection from Eircom. I got this by following some of the advice below on speed tests. I also checked the advanced DSL settings on Netopia and it Say Max Allowed 160.

Does this mean I just have a crappy line or should Eircome be able to help ?

Not much change here, 8MB BT Kilkenny.
Hope the new modem will change something. Look at those pings to Dub though.
