Ok so the i frame thing didn't work and i cant edit presumably because im new here so here is a pic of the graphical jump from adsl to fttc for me
 

here are my upload speeds, i forgot to put them in  original post
 
 

 

 

 

i am set to have sky fibre activated anytime tomorrow  so i will post the increased results on this same topic once it is up and running ,
the fibre will only cost me an extra £12.50 a month    basic is £22 a month with line rental and calls 

SOLVED!  Ok, I have concluded my assessment of the performance problems noted above.  THE WINDOWS 7 IP STACK IS A PIECE OF SHIT!  If you look at my results, you will see a massive performance improvement recently.  That's because I have upgraded my PC to Windows 8.1.  Nothing has changed except the OS.  My performance is on the order of over 10 times faster.  My advice for those of you who want to get to faster network performance, use Windows 8 or 10.

im in england and get a 200mb cable connection from virgin media for £45 with only 12-15mb upload depending on time

speaking of HDD's  Argos uk have the seagate backup 4Tb for £99, comes with 200gb cloud for 2 years and 2 year warranty, im tempted to go for it seing as the going rate for 1Tb is around £40-60 AFAIK

The spike at the start can sometimes be caused by the Internet Security (virus checker) or the browser itself.
 
For example, many Internet Security products start analysing the data of each connection before passing the data stream to the browser.  In the split second this happens, the data coming in is queued.  Once the Internet security product is satisfied this is not a threat, it passes this chunk along with any queued data to the browser.  To the speed test, this burst of data appears as the spike at the start of the graph.
 
I often see this happen with the Firefox web browser, which also seems to hold up the data stream near the start of the test.  For example, occasionally when I start a speed test, Firefox stutters and then seems to skip ahead 10% where the speed test script sees this chunk as a speed spike.  The following shows an example of the spike where I did a test on Firefox for Android, in this case over the Meteor LTE (4G) network.
 

We've got you covered @psyber , sorry for the delay in approving your posts.
