Wouldn't an M60 be more efficient to aim at BT? Aren't Thompsons a tad dated?

Quote Download speedachieved during the test was - 6050 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speedsis 1000-7150 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :4164 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 744 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 3500 Kbps
The throughput of Best Efforts (BE) classes achieved during the test is - 15.97:17.81:66.23 (SBE:NBE:PBE)
These figures represent the ratio while sententiously passing Sub BE, Normal BE and Priority BE marked traffic.
Upload speed achieved during the test was - 341 Kbps
Additional Information:
Upstream Rate IP profile on your line is - 744 Kbps
I am actually synching at 14915 Kbps and 440 Kbps upstream, with a PN Ip Profile of 6500. It seems that all PN 21CN connections are affected. Seems that other types are not.

Test time: 22/09/10 19:53
My router reported sync speed is currently 3974 Kbps downstream and 444 Kbps upstream.
My Plusnet reported profile is 4000 and has been since at least May, but I suspect that is duff as well, as I have not connected above 4500 kbps for several weeks (a few weeks after switching to ADSL2+ ).
My Broadband Speed gives result: 2886 kbps download and 209 kbps. I wouldn't be surprised if I'm on a 3000 kbps

All of the above match expectations. The low throughout is because of the PN IP profile of 6500 which has yet to be increased.

Just lifted the PN profile to match 13000, you should see it shortly.

However, last evening it was giving rubbish or not finishing. Could it be something to do with demand? Could others try at less busy times and see if they then get sensible results?

It just fell over here at the upload test, 0700, I think there is an element of luck involved.
(Not quite on topic but why the low download result relative the sync rate and profile.)
