I'm VERY envious. :-\

Hi Graeme,
What NBN Plan are you on? Are you FTTP or FTTN. You must be on a
fairly low NBN Plan to be receiving the download & Upload speeds you
mentioned below.
With NBN Download Speeds & Upload Speeds depend on what NBN Broadband
Plan you are paying for.
/I’ve been on NBN FTTP since May 2014 with/ *iiNet/Westnet on a/$94.90
per month plan/*
/*My Plan is 100GB + 100GB (Peak + OffPeak) + 50Mbps Download / 20Mbps
Upload + Fibre Phone (my own phone).*/
/

I rarely reach the 50/20 Mbps speeds of my Plan.
*My SpeedTest results taken today:*
1. Turn Off WI-FI - Connected via Ethernet CAT6 cable directly into
the NBN Termination Box UNI-D 1 Port
*Ping**Download Upload*
4.8ms-47.6Mbps18.9Mbps
2. Connected via WI-FI 5GHz Network (3TB Time Capsule)
*PingDownload Upload*
4.9ms47.7Mbps18.9Mbps
3. Turn Off WI-Fi - Connected via Ethernet port on TC
*PingDownload Upload*
4ms47.6Mbps 19Mbps
*Note:* I use and recommend CAT6 Ethernet cables, CAT5e can be used by
CAT6 are faster for Broadband
Also what Neil mentioned and I Quote from Neil’s reply:

Your results sort of confirm what worries me about the NBN – the
network/technology gives better speeds but, because of the high
wholesale costs, the service providers don’t buy enough bandwidth to
give good user speeds when congested.

Yes Neil, the smaller ISPs don’t have enough ‘Backhaul’ to handle
congestion times - a lack of virtual capacity on the network that
slows some connections to a crawl.

Ronni

I ran a test this week using Speedtest.app following my download of
High Sierra not that I thought the speed would improve by reason of
the latest download but I thought that
the speeds reflected by my test may be useful for comparison with
members in other areas.
I accept that the speed recorded was that at the time of the test but
comparisons may be helpful
I live in the Mt Pleasant area and have had the NBN for over 12 months
My recorded speeds were as follows
Ping2ms
Download11.1 Mbps
Upload2.47 Mbps
Are these details of interest to members?
