Choose a top 5 broadband provider

Epirito released its third quarter report on broadband providers this week. To come up with its top 5, it tests the ten biggest ADSL broadband providers (ADSL is broadband via your phone line).

The top 5, in order, for 30/04/07 to 30/06/07 are: BT, Demon, Tiscali, Pipex, PlusNet.

The surveyed broadband providers are measured against criteria for broadband speed and reliability. Performance is averaged out for the rankings, but they also provide information on which aspects different broadband providers did particularly well on, and how that might affect you if you have broadband with them.

• Tiscali achieved the highest connection speed
  
• BT had the fastest FTP and HTTP download speed - this usually reflects the speed of general web browsing
• BT and Pipex had the joint lowest packet loss rate - in straightforward terms, that is good news for VoIP users (VoIP is phone over broadband)
• Demon had the lowest percentage of connection failures in the second quarter which indicates that they also had the highest degree of uptime
• BT and Orange provided the lowest ping time average. This measures response rates to information requests. A fast ping time is generally good news for for online gamers
