Anyone achieved more than 17Mbit/s upload speed?

I think the point here is that if your download profile is better than 20Mbits, then everyone on that or better should be seeing the same upload speed. Patently, that's not the case - which does make one wonder what's actually going on...

You are forgetting about the transmission protocol overheads, they total approximately 12.9%.. So the most you are going to get is around 87.1% of your sync speed.

Is that the same in both directions?  12.9% seems wrong at least for downloads - people report actually achieving 76Mbits/s on speedtest.net on a 79.999 sync (95% of sync speed).

EDIT: I've now unlocked my modem and disabled QoS.  I now know that it's syncing at 79.999/20.000 (max achievable is 87.948/32.506).  Here's a typical speedtest:

Yet again can't get BT speedtester working, But it was my understanding that everybodys IP Profile on 80/20Mb was set at 78.33Mb D/L and 20Mb U/L or am I wrong again
