All I get is:

Test Error

The system is currently busy. Please try again shortly, however if this problem persists, raise the issue with your service provider.

Busy ???? Try again ??? It's been "busy" for the last 2 hours !!

In this age of "always on internet", you'd think they would make their own speedchecker work...!

Huh !

EDIT: Just tried again and got:

Unexpected result received when querying the network to find your services connection details. Please try again shortly, but if this problem persists raise the issue with your service provider.

Didn't work for me either. I had a great link from the newspaper, gave you graphs that you could link people to etc, but forgot to bookmark it  :roll:

Got exactly the same as Timbo.


Gary.

Same here with the BT test.....

The McAfee one worked though.
