Bandwidth Testing

I have been experiencing strange delays with my Internet download speeds lately that have started to bug me so much that I decided to report the issue to my ISP and see if they are able to help resolve this.

I have a so called Turbonet subscription which entitles me (according to Telenet's) latest being adertized on their website to 25Mbps download speed. Originally was sold to me as 20Mbps tho.

The main thing I've noticed is download speeds have become irratic and slow at times.

It so happens that a little while go a started measuring my dl speeds and at first I got this:


The download seems fairly close to what is to be expected, the upload speed tho seems only half of what is to be expected.

The second measurement (which was actually earlier this evening (on a Windows 7 machine):



This shows less then half of what its supposed to be...

I then later did a second test from my Ubuntu Netbook and got the following result:



Very similar to the results earlier from the Windows machine so I'm ruling out any computer related problems.

Finally the result from my ISP's bandwidth meter:


So there my upload speed dropped again, otherwise its close to the other 2 results of this evening.

Now I'm supposed to reset my router, which I will do tomorrow. This reset is supposed to load the router with its latest firmware according to my ISP.

I'll retest tomorrow, to be continued....
