    Ive tested my broadband a few times here
    http://www.irishisptest.com/runmyspeed.php
    And Im getting speeds of 456Kbps down and 489Kbps with a round trip time of 1ms .
    Ive looked into the ip on the web too and it wells me my Isp is digiweb Im subsribed to a small crew called cablewatch out in ashtown so they must go through them. And have a cable broadband connection. BUT Im not sure if this is good. I was told that its a 2mb broabband service and to me 456 kb is far shy of that. I thought basic dsl was 512kb???
    that site above also says that a cable modem should have 400Mbps speeds(sounds way to good for ireland)

    Also I notice when on sites like youtube the files are choppy wheras I had eircom before and god forbid ...they were not as bad when downloading!!
    Can anyone help me out here and translate these results? As i cant really make head nor tail of them.

    What exactly are you expecting from Boards? You don't appear to know what product you are paying for? Get on to your internet supplier if you have issues they are the only ones who can solve any problem you may have.
