Why can't they use the right word? It *isn't* the 'average' speed. The speed that at least half the population get is the *MEDIAN* speed.

One way to make every school bar one "above average" is to create one absolutely dire school to pull the average score just below the rest.

Ah yes, it usually dries faster if its quite warm.

Talking about speeds though, the headline speed is just a smoke screen. its increasingly obvious that the problem is not the actual speed to the home its bottlenecks elsewhere that seem to be the issue. Brian

and a lot of people forget that the speed of the server they are downloadin g from could be the bottleneck rather than ISP. It could also be that they are using a wireless connection and don't realise they can;t get full speed as that stated as the wired connection.

If anyone here uses the Ookla network Speedtest

When using the iOS app (I haven't tried the andriod version)
