What is the fastest speed I can get in London
Since there are varying speeds for broadband depending on where you are at such as country and city, can anyone tell me the fastest speed to expect within London.

I would say you can almost certainly get 8mb. Techincally, you could probably get 24mb, but i'd question whether that realistically acheived.

Speed is not everthing as ping also matters. And more is the ping more is the lag in the data sent and recived thus reducing your speed.

Latency matters only when you are playing online games or doing chatting and conferences and for normal surfing and downloading its not that big concern.

It all depends upon which part of the city you live and which are the companies providing the broadband services in that area. A true 24mbs speed can be attained.

This still varies on a variety of factors.What internet server providor are you on?Are you a long distance from the exchange?I would expect you can gain around 12mb with a good internet service providor.
