I do find it so strange with this observed speeds for VDSL on my line because I am still sync at 80000Kbps and 19999Kbps for 43 days but the observed speed say 78040/20000 but where does 78040 coming from?

It gives you the date you had that sync speed.
I'm sure if I look back through your posts you would have synced at (or close to) 78040 on or around 24/8/18

edit: 78044 on 23/8/18, so it rounds the figure up/down a little.

Works for me too, shows 67040 for my AAISP line - to be expected.

BTw has changed and adjusted on the observed speed below:

Before:

Observed Speeds
   

VDSL
Max Observed Downstream Speed (Mbps)    78040            
Max Upstream Observed Speed (Mbps)    20000                
Observed Date    2018-08-24

Now:

Observed Speeds
   

VDSL
Max Observed Downstream Speed (Mbps)    78.04                
Max Upstream Observed Speed (Mbps)    20                
Observed Date    2018-08-24

I was wonder why they still using old Observed Date - 2018-08-24 that very poor date range (should be day/month/year) as we are not in USA!

They are using the ISO 8601 standard, which is an international worldwide standard for all countries to use.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

The purpose of this standard is to provide an unambiguous and well-defined method of representing dates and times, so as to avoid misinterpretation of numeric representations of dates and times, particularly when data are transferred between countries with different conventions for writing numeric dates and times.

While the date shown on the BT BROADBAND AVAILABILITY CHECKER should only be relevant to the United Kingdom (and Northern Ireland?), I guess the date format for the ISO 8601 standard was preferred for some reason.

It's written to be informative for service providers, not for end users to be checking on a daily basis so no need for it to be pretty. Functional rather than fantastic.

I hope it's not too digressive, but the info in CodeLook is expanded too. I have been looking at Beckenham where a relative abides. Hope the link works. i found it interesting.

Yes it does.   Thanks.


However I'm scratching my head over this:

Quote
30% area up to 30MB, 70% area less than 30MB
Quote
100% area up to 300MB

Is someone getting bits and bytes confused? 
There is also an awful lot of 100% area up to 300MB so I'm assuming most of the area has either FTTP or G.fast. :-\

Broadband speed is collated by Ofcom and includes Virgin Media cable, KCOM and alternate fibre suppliers.

I assume most of the up to what should be 300Mb is from Virgin Media cable.
