    Hi,
    I'm looking for a method to, or application that will allow me to randomly test the speed of my EsatBT Broadband connection. Can you all put your "far wiser than mine" heads together and help me out with this one.
    Thanks.
    :confused::confused:

    I tested my connection and the result was an average of 320 kbit. Does this sound right?
