    Hi

    This is a strange one. I have 2mb wireless broadband. My internet speeds have been crap the past couple of weeks, lucky to get between 200k and 500k but I was d/l this evening an noticed I was downloading at 500kbps!. I did a few tests (one result below) and I have up to 5.5Mbps d/l :) Has this happened to anyone else? I know it's only temporary and probably work being done or whatever but I'm telling ya it would be pretty damn sweet to have that all the time. Downloaded a 190Mb in 11mins:eek:

    Well good luck expecting results from people if you "can't" say where you are or with who...

    I didn't see that at first, and it is obviously wrong as he said "wireless broadband".
