Ookla results-

Not too shabby! It took 40 minutes to dl two 1.5 gig movies at the same time.]]></content:encoded>

Looks not bad, how much is the basic price you're paying?
I always have the feeling that my line is shared between all the neighbours in our house. Makes a 1M line out of an actual 6M line. 
Also domestic and international speeds are two different shoes.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[The rated speed is the rated speed between your CPE (Customer Premise Equipment) and the provider.

Most DSL connections are shared by up to 250+ concurrent users (one Class C IP addressing segment - for those geeks out there) per "segment". Speed is further reduced when those users/subscribers go active - bandwidth hogs are the IPTV (internet television), videos, etc.

A 100 Mbps line will look great until more neighbors pile onto the bandwagon, so enjoy while you can.

Other things which can "slow" a blazing fast network connection - the DNS (domain Name Server), which translates things like apple.com into the IP address of the internet (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[Beware of 'experts'. Not of what they say, more the detail. Ten households would typically share a single connection to a nearby broadband junction box in the UK. 250+ is a highly unlikely scenario at this particular segment - even with a rip-off ISP enjoying a monopoly position.]]></content:encoded>
