test your broadband speed here

Are your ISPs giving you their advertised speed? Choose a server and test your speed.

I'd recommend using a few, not just the recomended one... I've had better speeds via Istanbul than London

12,251 download speed. It's a saturday and this is a peak hour. Pretty good. Although Vista doesn't like a few of the websites I've gone too making them all slow and stuff. 8-)

I pay for 8MB broadband but in peak hours get this sort of speed which is frustrating.. off peak I get my 8mb speed. I am switching broadband though.

Thanks :)

And I'm paying for 1024KB Downstream, 512MB Upstream.

Still, it ain't bad.  What sucks is the connection from here to other countries, and that's what I care about.  I barely visit any sites in Thailand apart from PC sites, or google.co.th...
