    Your download speed : 286500 bps, or 279 kbps.
    A 34.9 KB/sec transfer rate.
    Your upload speed : 59988 bps, or 58 kbps.

    Is that good I pay for 300k broadband, does it match?

    I have a 20mbps connection since recently.
    But I'm on wireless so it flunctuates a lot depending on the quality of my connection.

    This is what I got now:
    551.5 KByte/sec (=4412 kbps)

    Uploadspeed still sucks though. (192kbps)

    hmm...asspie

    Your download speed : 1659 kbps or 207.4 KB/sec.
    Your upload speed : 233 kbps or 29.1 KB/sec.

    my connection is supposed to be 1Mbps/256kbps, but in the past couple of days downloads seem to have got faster

    You might have been upgraded to 2mbps.

    I was on a 756kbps/256kbps, then they upgraded it to a 1Mbps/256kbps for less money, but the computer has always said its connected at 2.3Mbps so I guess they have just unlimited the connection a bit more, which is nice of them.... though I keep expecting them to tell me it was a error and put it back to the way it was.... I just wish they would give me a 512kbps or more upload as well so I can keep my torrent ratio easier
