BT FTTP
Tested just now (09:22AM on a Thursday)
Download - 72.8 Mbps
Upload - 20.5 Mbps
Ping - 14 ms / Jitter 3.9 ms
Paying for 73 Mbps I think - fairly happy with that. Could pay a lot more for gigabit but don't see a need with my usage, might upgrade to 300 Mbps in the next year or so once I start implementing some more home automation.

Bloody hell! Virgin Media is fast!
Having come from a house where we were "end of the line" on a copper network with Sky/BT, where tethering to our 3G phones was common......yes, we are over the moon with the current performance.Its not the quickest they offer as you will see (we are only on a 200Mpbs package), but for what we need, its plenty.

They roll these things out the wrong way. They make their money in the cities, so the countryside ought to be rolled out first, otherwise its forgotten.
