On: Speed Test

[maleldil]

Are you in London? My 1Gbps link gives 800-900Mbps in these speed tests, and I'm fine with that. It's a pitty that some of that is unused because I need to use a VPN.

When I lived in a small town, my 500Mbps would give me >400Mbps consistently.

That 800-900Mbps doesn't include the bits needed for IP packet headers, does it?

[maleldil → secondcoming]

I'm not sure. All I can say is that speedtest.net and fast.com both show 800/ 900 Mbps for download/upload.

MK area. I wish we had gigabit speeds available.

Googling says there's CityFibre and Giganet in the MK area. Did they skip your house? A fibre company skipped my street in London.

Never heard of the two frankly. Thanks for sharing.
