Default the speed test graph runs from right to left.

Hi BN,

Just a small point.
are you aware that the speed test graph runs from right to left? Convention would have the time axis (x axis) running from left to right.

Also, how come this site http://www.speedtest.ie/ gives consistently higher download speeds?

Thanks,
Bogtrotter

Default The graph is right

Hi Bogtrotter

You may be mathematically correct but I think BK has set up the graph to reflect real life experience in BB delivery in Ireland.

Unlike the rest of Europe where BB speeds are increasing the posts on this site are proof positive that in Ireland technology is going backwards with ever decreasing DL speeds. Accordingly it’s only natural that the speed test graph goes ‘backwards’.

No, Im with KerryBroadBand.

But both sites now show much the same results over the last few weeks.
