I've just tried testing my broadband speed using BT's speedchecker. The results were as they should be: 151Mb download and 30Mb upload. But when, immediately afterwards, I did checks on the first 6 independent speed checkers to appear on Google I was consistently only getting between 50-60Mb download, but still 30Mb upload. When I then checked on the BT checker again the download speed was back up to 150Mb...
I only had my fibre broadband installed yesterday, and I know that it can take up to 10 days for the internet speeds to settle, but these results are a bit concerning.
Has anyone had a similar experience or know why there's such a big difference between BT's speed checker and all of the others? (Other than than the cynical view that BT are deliberately fudging their numbers which surely isn't the case!)
