All below 1.2mbit/sec speedtest to wellington and auckland, downloads down to between 30 and 60 kbytes/sec.

Started around 3.45 pm.

Just me, or is anyone else having odd issues?
:thanks

Just did another speedtest (www.speedtest.net) to Auckland... :eek:

This (www.speedtest.net) is what it's normally like.

Nice speed too.

781390 2009-06-11 06:10:00 Yeah not bad, which is a good thing have some stuff I want to download tonight, such as Ubuntu 9.04 gary67 (56)
781391 2009-06-11 06:58:00 No problems here (www.speedtest.net) - in actual fact it's faster than the speed test I did on Sunday at 1am :lol: pcuser42 (130)

781394 2009-06-11 09:47:00 I reckon that the problem often is nothing to do with the local loop and ADSL -to explain – if I use the ISP tool to check the local loop speed I am likely to get something like 6,487kbits per second or nearly 811kbytes per second. But the reality is when I am doing downloads, the speed seldom gets anywhere near this figure – and in fact can be less than 10kBytes per second at times. The implication is of course that there are bottlenecks in the system other than the local loop. johnd (85)
