Internet Speed

[Marks adventure]

Please can someone tell me how to check the speed at which my internet is running at.

I have just upgraded to Virgin VIP 20mb but my internet connection seems the same as before.

Is there any way to check the speed i'm connected at.

Thanks

You'll find most speed tests don't give an accurate reading at this level.

Best thing is to down load a file to a folder a check the speed. News groups are good if your in one.

this one's not bad. not always accurate, but try it at different times of day to get a good idea of your throughput.
