Note it uses about 2Gb up and down per month, and they want people with less than 30 Gb per month
they are after the following ISP's AOL,BT, O2/Be, Orange, Plusnet, Sky, Talktalk or Virgin Media.

We all know that surveys can be somewhat interesting to go by, but I always think that ones that are aimed at practically the whole country, especially where details are required to complete them (rather than just running a little speedtest) are going to be a little sketchy at best.
I also think that it will be rather confusing for a number of people choosing between upto 8/20Mbps and the actual speed we say we think they will be able to get on our website.

Well so far I am just going by what I read on the samknows website that says -
"Can Community members see their own individual results?
You know it! Once signed up and operational you will be sent an email with a link to your statistics page. If you don't receive the email, please contact us and we'll sort this out for you."
It then goes on to show a load of screen shots of statistical pages you can view , which yeah I guess are online.
So I imagine you know alot more about it than me as I have not received the email yet so I cannot view anything.
I take it that its not very interesting then?
Cheers
Paul.

any one know if the samknows box is cleaver another to notice the bandwidth is being maxed out and so drops the tainted latency result.
thoe i was impressed when the 21cn latency issue appeared and untill one of the samknows tester's checked the graphs and noticed to that at midnight the latency shot up i would of probally still to this day bein trying to get people to belive it was more than just my line/exchange
quick google shows it was paul03 who was on the samknows test http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,80166.msg654143.html#msg654143
