Online at home again
Just got my internet connection set up again (since I moved house).
Ran a speed test which is sadly slower than last time, only 4.6MB download & 0.8MB up. Apparently I’m now 1848m away, whereas in Bristol I was only about 585m.
Oh well, that’s the way the cookie crumbles I guess. Still, it’s good to be back!

Michaela is 716m away from her exchange, but gets worse rates than me:

Speed Down 2077.12 Kbps ( 2 Mbps )
Speed Up 355.76 Kbps ( 0.3 Mbps )
Port 8095
Server speedtest1.adslguide.org.uk
But testing on http://speedtest.net/
Using the Maidenhead TranceFM server, we get
3879 Kbps
312 Kbps
[...] As reported earlier, I’m now 1848m away from my exchange, which apparently should give me ADSL and ADSL2+ at approximately 4Mbps, which would be reasonable as it’s what I’ve clocked before. [...]
