I think its longest + fastest. So I would be the fastest at the furthest away from test site.

Get Telenet, I pay for 60/3.5 and I get 59/3.3 easily :p And Telenet even comes out slightly cheaper if you bundle TV, phone and internet!

Nice! Still got ya on ping at least, hahaha.

When i'm at school, I'll do this test again: 150MBit down and 50Mbit up :D

Naah, I keep it fair and fun :)

Agreed, but we are with belgacom for years and we are not planning to change (at least, my parents aren't)

because we also have tv and phone from the same company (we have the bundle) and it would be a pain in the .... to change all of these things.

Besides, I tried with cable and I have to say we got 25MBit so that's reasonable imo.

I'm using a wireless connection, that's why this result looks very/extra poor :p

Going to grab my netbook and connect it with a cable to the router, let's see what the result is than ;)

PS: my speeds are decreasing with 90% when the tv is turned on :o :o really annoying and i have no idea how to fix it :s

Normal :p BelgacomTV actually just streams the TV over your ADSL connection. Unfortunately, you can only have one active ADSL connection on each copper pair (which is one per house in Belgium), so if you're watching TV it's actually streaming over ADSL and eating your normal download speeds. Doesn't happen with Telenet Digital TV ^^ On the plus-side of things, BelgacomTV can be Wireless or just over Ethernet, for Telenet Digital TV you need a standard coax cable (televisiekabel) and an ethernetcable.

Oh well, I'm happy with my Telenet-everything ^^
