Broadband speed

Are these speeds about average ?
Looking at other posts on this forum they seem well below average. Am I missing something ?

If you post some stats from your router maybe someone can give a more informed answer. Smiley

Re: Broadband speed

Jelv,
Thanks for that, however it's not working for me.
I Tried Administrator & Leaving the password blank but that does not work.
I have also tried Administrator followed by the number under the modem which starts with  MBW....etc
That does not work either.
The modem is a Thompson V7.... is there any way I can get it to display the information I need or do I just press the reset button and start from scratch ?
