For some reason I cannot seem to get a speed test result on this page. I click the advanced or even the custom button, and it says testing and the red arrows, but wait for ages and nothing appears.

Any reason why.

Also I used to check my speed on Namesco and i am getting the same here click to begin and nothing, never used to do this. :(

I find all the speedtesters results are always a little bit higher than the actual BT Speedtester.

Or you could try the Tiscali speed tester... Would never work for my though - strangely only showed my speed as about 100Kbps at peak times when I was with them. :rolleyes:

Jack's link is the Tiscali tester...it does work but only gives you download speed, albeit very quickly.

Also if you use Norton Internet Security you have to disable it to get the DSLZoneUK speed test to work (Which was I think your original question)!
