Search in Google for "Broadband Speed Check" and there are loads of sites that offer this.

Here is one as an example

http://www.speedtest.net/

would run a test from a number of different sites (over a number of different days and times) to get an average.

btw Few of us get what we actually pay for.

how can you check "up to"?

[Rollo]

As said above, you pay for an "up to" speed. That might be very slow, but it is still "up to" the maximum they quoted you.

I pay for up to 8Mbs but my average connection speed is about 6.5Mbs

[Rollo]

I rarely get more than 5Mb.

But I do live a long way from my exchange, so I did not expect anything like the 8 Mbs maximum.
