I like in the UK.

Unlike many other places we do not have a thing called cable. instead we are stuck with adsl where i live. So please support the NSSIP aka National Society For Slow Internet Prevention.

That's the problem with BT and their 'estimated' speeds.

just did a test with the new Ookla speed test, can't find the share like the older versions, so I just screen capped it, so it is in the spoiler

Edit: this is around peak time as well, got to love fiber optic.
