May be hope for your rufus, RADSL comes out next year which extends the reach of consett's exchange so u could still get 256kbs
Downstream 485 Kbps (60.6 KB/sec) 523 Kbps (inc. overheads) Upstream 118 Kbps (14.8 KB/sec) 127 Kbps (inc. overheads) thats mine is it good? (cable broadband)
Depends what package it is, if its 512 (half a meg) then its good download, little pants upload speed. If its a 1mb connection then its crap!
My test results: Downstream 472 Kbps (59.0 KB/sec) 509 Kbps (inc. overheads) Upstream 111 Kbps (13.9 KB/sec) 119 Kbps (inc. overheads) Blueyonder Broadband. Yet when I download stuff the KB rate is normally faster. What a shite upload speed...I've not tried this yet like.
Downstream 480 Kbps (60.0 KB/sec) 518 Kbps (inc. overheads) Upstream 112 Kbps (14.0 KB/sec) 120 Kbps (inc. overheads) is mine
