LOL. Look again & you'll see the or between 2 & 4. The reason for this is there are common gateways for these 2 centrals at present so it's not possible to differentiate between them. If there's a significant disparity in speed between them on the NOC site you can then see which one you're on.

For obvious reasons the loading on both centrals is given.

Thanks again..

It's a neat app, for sure. I'm just a little suspicious of its ability to differentiate between Centrals 2 & 4, though, as the tool on the Entachoice site can't do it. Any time I've landed on one of them it's been C2......for some reason I can never get C4. I know C4 has only 1 segment lit while all 4 on C2 are lit, so the odds will always be for landing on C2, but still....

Going on download speeds when central 4 showing 7.2 and central 2 showing 3.4 my speeds are more in tune with central 2, as you say central 4 is only has 1 segment lit, it's a good chance that i'm on central 2..
