Quoting: EDGE
Anyone know anything about Virgin media? are they shite?
They used to be NTL. Make of that what you will....
Don't forget, all the advertised speeds from everyone are 'up to', which means it will almost never happen.
More and more are doing traffic shaping - if you use 'too much' bandwidth, you get automatically limited to a much slower speed for an amount of time.
That applies to all ISP's, not just cable.
