    Sounds about right (including overheads, congestion etc.).

    I'm on 7.6MB with BT and get a steady 700KB/s (800+ at the right time and protocol).

    The Galway server seems to give better pings and sometimes better speeds

    I'm on the 7mb BT package. Been noticing my connection isn't performing the best recently. Here's my results:

    Does this mean I'm on the 3mb package? My router says
    Downstream 7616 kbps
    Upstream 672 kbps
