Ok what are they doing over there.

Just did another bt speed test.

Now the limit is 4000k.

I guess thats as fixed as its gonna get for now. There's still 2000 thats just sitting there but 4000 is good enough for now. Why do they keep the limit if its that high? Why not just remove it completely to allow me to squeeze the most out of my line?
4000 is about right for peak time on a 50:1 line.

Mine says 1252kb/s.

But i only download at about 260. Is that bad?
No this is normal. Your speed in the speedtests is measured in kilobits, download speeds from something like firefox are measured in kilobytes.
If he has 1-2Mb broadband yeah it's perfectly normal.
Think we're paying for 1.5MB
So everything seems fine

edit: tried the London server instead of the (discontinued?) Maidenhead server. Got 2382 download 354 upload.

Is it because it is morning?

Yeah it'll vary quite a lot depending on the time of day, mine goes from between 6500 and 7400 on average, during the afternoon it drops to about 4500 but I'm not home then so it doesn't bother me
