Just did another test on different speedtesters (thanks Kim):

2.3Mbps, .32Mbps
retest with "prefered server" but it didn't ask what that was:
2.7Mbps, .32Mbps

2.03Mbps linespeed (what the line is supposedly set to -- not the 
8Mbps supposedly now there)
254KB/s download speed

It's not performing. And that's on internode's mirror. I do see that 
a provisioned 8Mb/384ADSL line has typical performance of 1500/326 to 
8000/384, but why would an ADSL line change from one day to the next? 
As I said the other day, speeds were in the 4-5000 range when the 
announcement was made.
