I get crappy unreliable internet as a punishment for living in S.Wales

This is my average or above average speed. Still, better than some can get.

If people want to know how to work out they're megabits from their megabytes - 8Mb = 1MB, just divide Mb by 8 to convert to MB (there are 8 bits in a byte).

Faster upload is way more important to me than the fastest download so i change my router settings to get best upload.

If i don't do that i get about 7Mbps but the upload drops below 1Mbps.

Its really quite good seeing as we are on a very long line.

for all you broadband speed people, my work just told us the other day, they are planning on the roll out of 100meg download, 20meg upload broadband to residential customers at the start of the new year with plans for the 200meg to be rolled out by the end of 2011.

all of virgins broadband runs off of the same cabling mate, its fibre up until the main cabinet then its heavy RG6 quad shielded copper cable to the modem. no word on them changing to fibre all the way to the house as of yet.
