The thinkbroadband graph shows a very good line with consistent low latency.

Are you actually seeing any issues with the line? As you haven't mentioned any.

HI i get them from https://speedtest.btwholesale.com/details

so should i not be worried about the high ping from above?

Absolutely not! It comes out with some very strange figures from time to time. Probably one of the least reliable of testers around.

oh no our BB takes a hit big style. i switched to the HG612. Thanks to these lovley peeps on here i was able to acces the HG612 via a shared Cat5 but i was so slow and as you suggested jelv i must have changed some settings on the HG612 which i rest and use as modem only. However you have said thinkbroadband says everything is ok and BTwhole not reliable i will say

Problem fixed here then

For testing actual speeds rather than latency the thinkbroadband speed test is about the best as it runs both single threaded and multi-threaded. Comparison of those two can be a good indicator of congestion.

Its worth noting that historically I have found the TBB test more likely to hit single-thread performance issues more often than everyday downloads do.

I think for whatever reason, the path to them can be more congested from ISPs at times.

The best single-thread test, is to download from various different sites and see how fast they go.  As long as they aren't all well below your line speed, there's probably not an issue, or at least its outside the ISPs network.

Are you sure you are reaching the correct conclusion?

In the last 3½ years I've not seen tbb speed tests where the x1 and the x6 speeds differ significantly. This is a typical result:


I've been with AAISP for 3½ years. Coincidence?

On AAISP sure, you're paying a huge premium for that.

I'm not saying ISPs don't have congestion, I'm saying that congestion to TBB does not necessarily mean its an ISP problem.

I get full single thread speeds (110Mb/s) to the TBB tester 24 hours a day on my Virgin connection.
I did with Plusnet and Talktalk also.

Only every had single thread issues with BT, and that wasn't down to the TBB tester.

I've seen quite a few single thread issues with Zen ion the TBB forums over the past couple years. Though none for a while so they might have sorted that.
