    I also did a test at: http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/stats.html
    which gave the following:
    Details

    Your raw speed was 416554.04 bits per second which is the same as:

    Communications

    416.6 kilobits per second
    How communication devices are rated. Kilo means 1,000 and mega means 1,000,000. Examples include 56k modem and 10Mbit Ethernet

    Storage

    50.8 kilobytes per second
    The way data is measured on your hard drive and how file sharing and FTP programs measure transfer speeds. Kilo is 1,024 and mega is 1,048,576.

    1MB file download

    20.1 seconds
    The time it would take you to download a 1 megabyte file at this speed.

    Rating

    Compared to all connection types worldwide, yours is great

    Downloads seem to be stable now but the pings are still awful , lets hope they sort out the Latency issue soon.

    did that speed test at www.bandwidthplace.com and my raw speed was 26 kb/s and was at 1 in the mornin , thats kilobits per second,is there something wrong at my exchange or something like that ,only got set up today on netsource.did a ping test and got 200 average latency.when surfing the net pages are pretty slow to open,but download accelerator can get up to about 500kb/s but usually about 200. downloading internet explorer servicepack it only went at about 5kB/s. any opinions

    kc10 what connection do u have?
    paddyman, i am on powernet from chorus 512/128. download accelerator makes multiple connections to the same site or different sites to increase the connection speed, it a download manager there are loads of them out there i find this the best. google for it

    I've noticed that the Netsource pings can be good during the day and go to hell in the evening/night! Lets hope they've got that extra capacity on line.

    Does anyone have the eircom starter pack?
    Is it stable all the time (ping wise) or does it go bad during the evening/night as well as the netsource one?
