Emasher Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Generally your upload speed will be less than your download speed. If you want a better upload speed, your going to need to get a better package from your ISP. Thats how it works in Canada anyway, I assume its the same over there.

Bren Posted July 20, 2008 Author Share Posted July 20, 2008 It used to be fine though, theyve just done speed optimisation aswell, or they say they have, it should be 8mb broadband, so like 300 - 400 kbps? 40kbps is just shite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 If the speed isn't what your paying for, you should contact you ISP. They can't charge you for a service they're not giving you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supercube Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Try using this site to test both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanchez Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Usually this will be due to something changing. Make sure all your lines have micro filters, check nobody is leeching off your wi fi, make sure there aren't torrent programs running, check for lingering programs in task manager that might be taking the bandwidth for some reason. Restart the router. Check for spyware. Check for viruses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shino Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Your upload speed is as good as my download speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadKill Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Bear in mind 40KB/s is 320Kb/s, the larger of those figures is often quoted as the upload speed. Most ISPs give 256kb/s-768kb/s - this can be a lot more on ADSL2 or some other newer connection, up to 2.5Mb/s. 40KB/s is shite, but it may not be completely unusual for your ISP, contact Sky and ask them when you should expect to see. If however you do mean 40Kb/s, then that chokes on black dicks and something is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
