Quote from: 11110_110 Your paying for pro add on, why ?
He must be frequently maxing out his line and wants things like P2P to make things like streaming keep buffering and be unpleasant to use.

When you run the tests, is anyone else using the network or are there any background programs running that could be using the bandwidth? Are you running any P2P software when trying the download test?
What's your current line speed here https://portal.plus.net/my.html?action=data_transfer_speed ?

you should try a quiet line test to check - phone plugged into test socket with everything else unplugged.
