I have literally no idea what that means.

Interesting that I found it on a dating site forum then.

I've just got back actually fossy, although I agree a returning time of 11:30pm on a friday might sound a bit ridiculously early.

 

[fossyant]

Well - 11.30 used to be the old chucking out time !!!

I used a different speedtester and it came up with 6.57 Mb/s and 0.67 Mb/s.

I am pretty close to the Hebden Bridge exchange (which is good), but my router is on the end of about 50 ft of cheap telephone extension cable (which is not so good) so I'm fairly happy with those figures, given a theoretical maximum of 8 Mb/s.

I get: Speedtest.net requires at least version 10 of Flash. Please update your client.

That'll be the 'You need at least version 10 of Flash, so update it' error!

Flash is a 'plug-in' for your browser which is used by many sites, for example - YouTube. You may have an older version installed, in which case you'd need to update to the current version (click the link they gave you!). You may not have it installed at all (unlikely, but possible), in which case - click the link they gave you! You may have a suitable version of Flash installed already but it might be disabled, in which case you'd need to enable it (how, depends on which web browser you use).

I found this link on another forum. It is the results of my internet speed test. I have no idea if it is good or bad. Click on the image if you want to see what yours is.

Just run the test again.

Glad you've made that clear to Mort because to be quite honest the guy's a bit of a thickie when it comes to techie stuff!
