I don't see how this is going to prove anything though, we are all going through the same pipe to anywhere overseas, and there is no way you can get an accurate reading from people going to speedtest and testing somewhere, as you didn't specify a server to test to, not everyone has the same line speed (capped speeds etc), and even then, the margin of error in your survey would need to be + or - 100%. :groan:

656664 2008-04-07 04:07:00 I don't even have broadband...

... but anyone who's followed any of the many regular "Which ISP?" threads in this forum will know that Xnet is the one most often recommended by members.

And you haven't got that one in your poll.
So if you've excluded what's been shown as most popular here, the poll alone will be too inaccurate to serve any purpose.

656665 2008-04-07 04:09:00 Xnet is WorldExchange (they've spelt it wrong) Speedy Gonzales (78)
656666 2008-04-07 04:10:00 He has "WorldExtange" listed which I assume is supposed to be WorldExchange which is Xnet. roddy_boy (4115)
656667 2008-04-07 04:12:00 Slingshot not there either
