    Eileen as said do a test at speednet - virgin will recommend you test with that and its something we all use and easy to see and understand the results. Again as said if your do it wirelessly you may not get the top speed but doing it wired you should do
    heres my test and i get 60
    this is done wired and look at the download speed

    You are getting what your supposed to get there for 20mb, I would try and get your upload increased though.

    I was getting 100mb down and 4-5 upload, I rang and asked them about them doubling the upload and they did at no cost now I get between 8-10 upload.

    yes yes yes ok ok ok we get the message LOUD and clear! BUT you need more speed to run the likes of this place - i dont plus cant afford to go to 100 - i pay enough for my package !


    @ Eileen if your getting that on wifi you got good speed! now try it on a wired pc if you have one, i tend to usually do its at least 3 times to get an everage, but then if you do that you do get carried away and tend to play with it on/off all day to see when you get the best speeds. you can also open an account so you can see all your results and check when your best time of day is also if you look top rh corner it will give you the time and date
    Also different browsers will give you a different speed - Chrome is meant to be the fastest
    Top one is Firefox this one is chrome
