    Thanks myf360f1 but i do like this one a bit better as it does the Ping / Latency and also you can pick what Server/Area you test

    I am running FireFox 3.5 and just downloaded MS.NET framework, that took 16 mins on dialup, when I try to install it it wants to download more files from the net that will take over 4 hrs, so it can wait till tonight when I'm in bed.

    1.28Mb/s down
    0.21Mb/s up
    0.3ms ping

    Thats also adsl 1 as i cant get adsl 2 with anybody other than Telstra and it is horribly over priced for not much in the way of downloads.

    This sucks!!!
    No streaming videos (constantly buffering), takes ages for pages to load etc, etc.
    Telstra ADSL 1 at distance limit from nearest exchange.

    Is there any way of improving this without paying through the nose for ADSL2+ (no cable in street)
