lol. Who is your ISP.? Siimply speaking, who do you pay for broadband?  Virgin are one of the highest rates for broadband speeds on fibre optics. They were talking a few months ago of upping speeds from 20Mb to 50Mb but that hasnt hit this shelf yet. So yer good at doctoring figures on graphics.lol.
cheers

Help Quantum. Am I being ripped off?

LOL Pay.

I do have a copy of CS4 but don't have any idea how to upload the doctored pictures back up to www.speedtest.net right click on one of the images and select properties.

Well your into the underground but just on the surface of it so yes you are being ripped off.
Or should I say not ripping others off as much as you could be.

BT are actually looking at doing 50 Mb by doing fiber optics down to the end of the street and leaving copper for the rest, which would work and be a lot cheaper than replacing everything with fiber optics and being able to get 100 Mb.

Speed test save each result as a PNG image on their server, if the image is coming from speedtest then it's not doctored.

texasboy:
BT have stated that the cost of replacing their copper wire exchanges to fibre optic cables  may be prohibitive because of cost. But they will eventually have to spend the money to make this happen . Are they gonna dig up our streetrs again and compete with Virgin? Even a partial replacememt,as you suggest is not the answer.
cheers
