Looks like Virgin has finally upgraded our internet speed.

At the same time, one of the Powerline extenders I was using (to connect the study to the living room) was being intermittently dodgy. So I grabbed a new pair of AV500 (to replace the old AV200 ones), and did a before/after test with SpeedTest.net.

With the AV200 ones I was getting around 50Mb/s. With the AV500 ones:


That'll do. For this week :->

(I really should plug a laptop directly into the router and see what speed _that_ gets. With our walls, and laptops that don't support 5GHz they max out around 32Mb/s over wireless.)

If I plug in, I get 160Mb/s, but on wireless it varies between 80 and 100 depending on where I am. It's quite nice being able to stream whatever I want and not worry about disrupting the rest of the house.
