tommie gorman Posted July 21, 2009 CID Share Posted July 21, 2009 For one who is the ISP, 2) what is your advertised speeds they promised you. Is your computer clean? Type of connection. DSL, wireless, satelite, etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roco Posted July 21, 2009 CID Share Posted July 21, 2009 Hi wellcome Juliet , Tommie's advice is good , unfortunately there ain't no one click button to increase speed , more details as Tommie said would be helpfull , also is this a new problem or did it suddenly happen after being OK ? this speed issue is common in the UK , Up to 8Mb services is just that ..."up to " , Isp's are reluctant to do anything as they only rent the line from BT, that is if you have adsl using the phone line , cable is totally different , Regards Roco ...UK , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliet Posted July 24, 2009 Author CID Share Posted July 24, 2009 Hello to you all and thanks for the warm welcome... Sorry to take so long but work and my Mum not being well is making things a bit hard at the moment. Anyway enough of the small talk (for now) I am with BT (British Telecom) and I have been getting the "up to 8mb" (according to them) and the bt connection tester says I am getting between 1.3 mb and 6.2 mb. When I run it on this site I only get about 600kb to 700kb.(I must add a very nice site) Anyway I was running 5 wired pc's and 1 wireless laptop for quite some time, Then about 6 months ago it dropped to 2 x pc's and 1 xbox, only ever either 2 x pc's or 1 pc plus 1 xbox (you get the picture) Anyway about 3 weeks ago if you have for example the xbox on and then you turn the pc on you get logged off the internet on the xbox and vice versa. We are all on ethernet plugged into a home hub 2.0 (the kind man at BT let me have a new one for free and I didn't even bat an eyelash....) It's ADSL Numerous line tests and still waiting for the results to come back... I hope I covered everything oh and I vote for the FEMputer too!

Juliet Posted July 25, 2009 Author CID Share Posted July 25, 2009 hello again.... oh yes I am back muwhaha!!! Ok, I think they may have sorted it out..... although I am not going to hold my breath. I just ran speed test with bt and I got at 11am UK time today Down-stream - 8128 Up stream - 448 - (I have been told by BT this will never get any higher) Ran test on here Ok cool It worked (wasn't sure how to add the "pic" (No I am not blonde!) Highest test so far..... FEMputers all the way!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
