I'm doing a few speed tests to prove to Virgin Media that my connection is crap, then when they have the proof I'm migrating to BT Total broadband as they seem to be quite reasonable at the moment.

I get absolute crap download speeds at every other time apart from 6am - 8am every day, My connection is currently 1mb, as due to some financial problems in the last few months I dropped to the lowest package from 8mb, But my connection is as bad as it was then.

In the mornings between 6 & 8 I use to download on the 8mb Max DSL connection at about 750kB/s, but any other time of day and it would be under 50kB/s, now I'm on 1mb, my download speed would be faster on a 56k modem, which kinda takes the piss.

So in order to not pay a fee of £109 for migrating before my 12 months contract is up with virgin, I'm having to log a series of speed tests at BT's site to prove to virgin how crap my connection is, so I can dispense with the £109 fee and migrate to BT.

Hopefully it'll be sorted by next week, cos I'm really pissed off at virgin and just wanna decent ADSL service worth paying for.

I guess your on Virgin ADSL, which is supposed to be rubbish.

If you cant get cable, then check to see if you can get any LLU at...
