BT Infinity - Super Fast Fibre-Optic Broadband

[mcgillianaire]

I've just upgraded to BT's Infinity high-speed Internet service. Download speeds have jumped from 7 Mbps to 37 Mbps while upload speeds have gone from 0.3 Mbps to 8 Mbps. There doesn't seem to be a noticeable difference in browsing speeds but needless to say, I'll be putting the download and upload speeds to the test later today. Yay, this is exciting! I love being at the forefront* of available technologies...

(* Though truth be told, I have already spent a year living with these speeds during my first year at uni eight years ago)

I know eh! And I think you're absolutely right, it's the upload speed I'll prolly notice and about time too!

I think this says it all...

Exactly! I installed the speedtest.com app on my iPhone today and it produced this result:



That's using the wireless connection from my new broadband set-up. I wish I'd tested it before I upgraded. The engineers said I probably wouldn't get speeds above 19Mbps on a wireless connection with the same broadband.
