Not bad considering there are two servers and various PCs which are sharing the connection. Will remeasure tonight with everything else shut down. For a rural location we are a long time away from something much faster.

I cheated and used my work connection.

Got a slightly better result when I tried Maidenhead rather than the London default.

Happy enough with that speed, I could set the router to connect faster, but I have it set to connect at the slowest speed because I prefer a 100% stable connection to a faster connection.

Been connected at this speed for 4 years now. I find I'm the bottleneck rather than the connection, I can't consume information as fast as I can download it, e.g. it takes much longer to listen to an mp3 than it does to download it. Even 720p video downloads much faster than the time it takes to watch it.
