>>It's rare I have problems with TT fibre. I can't remember a problem in the last year. It connects

How do you test that?
The reason is I ask is that I use speedtest.net and the results are interesting. My service provider is VTR and the server it automatically chooses is GTDGrupo.net - both telcos in Santiago.
The result is 109/19
If I force it to use Movistar Buenos Aires then the result is 46/4
If I force it to use Vodafone London then the result is 21/9
Since you're in the UK the chances are that most of the websites you access are in the UK or at least in Europe. However, since I am in the a*** end of nowhere, almost anything I will use is international and probably intercontinental.
It makes a huge difference. Also, of course, is the difference between speed and bandwidth.
