Youtube has a weird way of prioritising bandwidth
I've been told 7mb/s for my house.
Same provider at my parent's house (which is A LOT closer to the exchange in the same village)...
I can see them getting a pissed off phone call in a couple of weeks when it's all set up & sorted.

VM are clearly far from perfect. Nothing in life is.
What I do know for sure is that I downloaded the latest (2GB) episode of The Waking Dead earlier, in one minute forty eight seconds. That'll do
ooooooo.
Hang on, where are you getting that from for it to be 2GB?
Evo 5 RS
Oh right, yeah.
Me too.
Me too.
So yeah since moving into the new house I have been with SKY but not with SKY (On the connect service as they didnt have any LLU to SKY in my local exchange)
I would struggle to get above 3-4 meg out of BT's kit.."Thats the maximum speed your line can handle sir" No im 800 metres from the exchange (line of site anyway) bolloxs.
On the 28th SKY finally put some of there equipment in the exchange and since then have been receiving this...
And thats during peak times with me downloading something off steam upstairs too. Have not had any lag issues playing PS3 online...even at my previous house I had lag and was within 1km of the exchange and would struggle to get above 6 meg. I knew something fishy with BT was happening.
Good ol BT "Maximum your line can take sir" f**k off.

That is insane! ^
Heres mine from the wifi at uni. I know they cap it and run it seprate to the main uni network so i imagine its more like 100MB/s from uni pc's.
The one at my accommodation is pretty consistent always hovering 10MB/s with 1.3MB/s upload but that's what package i'm on. I can pay to have it upgraded to 100MB/s but that costs around £200 for the year and i don't really need it.

Why do people need such high speeds? Can't imagine ever needing higher than what I have atm. Mine's totally free anyway so happy
Seems mine's improved a little since 2 years ago! Still not paying a dime for it so happy days...
