What speed are you getting?

Preferably you have done a test such as morning, afternoon and evening so that you are not getting peaks and toughs. Try to test national and international. I am not going to ramble between national and international speeds but just want to get an idea on what sort of consistent maximum speeds are provided to the customer.

If they are very close to the thresholds you can round it there.


Thanks. Appreciated :)

509781 2006-12-27 02:43:00 I can't generalise international and national speeds. I can't make an average out of 400kBps (national) and 20kBps (international). qazwsxokmijn (102)
