Connection Settings

Out of Interest on the connection settings page of Member Centre

                                      Download Speed                                            Upload Speed

Re: Connection Settings

Hi there,
The estimates are essentially, just that, an estimate.  We take these from the information that we get from BT Wholesale.  Sometimes, like in your case, they can be out by a bit, but in your case it looks to be a good thing!
