Isn't that just the speed from your iPad to your router? Not your Router to ISP speed. Can you run the test again from a wired connection and see if there's a difference (rule out the WiFi part of the link).

I'm on 100Mbs down, 20 up, but I've limited down/up to around 80% for QOS and it works great with 2 teenagers and a Netflix/Facebook addict in the house :thumbsup:

I get the same on my Mac on a wired connection. I'm on VM 200mb connection and always get over 180 wired, wireless is up and down like a whores draws so even I was impressed with last nights results :thumbsup:
Upload is always a solid 12mb regardless what device I'm on which is a bit poor imho but that's what they must cap it at ?

BT Superfast Broadband. Hardwired 90ish Wireless 60 Upload 20. I am only 30m from the main exchange and have my own clean line as I played my face with the speeds I was getting, it turned out the culvert from our group of 13 houses was loosing in moisture and damp was plaguing the equipment.

I'm supposed to get 36 - 76 Mb with BT infinity, in practice it's around 40. That's with connection from the router to my pc by BT power line, wireless drops it to about 20.

I'm told by BT that distance from the junction box is a big influence as its copper wire, the fibre stops at the junction box. That's about half a kilometre in my case.

Like the speeds - what's with the high latency though...

I don't think the Which speed-checker is working properly...just compare that to the Ookla Speedtest numbers below.
