So what speed is mine running. Sorry maybe im thick but that means nothing to me

1st 128K took 0 ms = Infinity Bytes/sec = approx Infinity kbits/sec
2nd 128K took 0 ms = Infinity Bytes/sec = approx Infinity kbits/sec
3rd 128K took 0 ms = Infinity Bytes/sec = approx Infinity kbits/sec
4th 128K took 1 ms = 131072000 Bytes/sec = approx 1090519 kbits/sec

Edited because its got even higher now ive closed other apps

Refresh the test page whilst holding down the Ctrl key down, looks like you've got the site in your cache so it's not reporting the correct speed....

After 5 years of a fantastic service from Telewest/Blueyonder, we've just moved to an NTL area.

We only have the Pace box (installer suggested calling up customer services and trying to swap it for a Sumsung box), but I'm downloading at 4Mb, so all is good!!

But it is what the engineer told me, both 'on-site' and on the tech support line... doesn't mean I believe it!
