Some of you with connection problems may want to consider the above program, it's pretty good.

Mine sux apparently . *shock*

it doesnt detect many probs though

just lost packets and actual speed.

If I post an offical looking letter to everyone in my area, telling them not to get broadband as it gives you cancer or something, do you think it will help maintain my contention ratio thingy and therefore benefit me?

It worked for my Grandad, although he's now in jail.

Anyway, my connection rated "superb, better than expected" on almost everything, I dropped no packets and was rated at 75KB/s (600Kb/s) which was nice.
