A new quarterly
consumer ADSL broadband report from Epitiro identifies AOL, BT, Demon, Orange and Virgin as the UK’s top five consumer ADSL
broadband service providers in the second quarter of 2006.
“Our consumer ADSL
testing found that in terms of Internet performance, BT topped the overall
rankings for the period April to June 2006. BT was also found to provide the
fastest service as a percentage of its theoretical maximum,” says Gavin Johns,
Managing Director of Epitiro.
“Virgin, BT and
AOL were the fastest services to actually connect to the Internet, while Pipex,
Orange and BT
were up to four times faster than the industry average at delivering email,”
Johns explained.
Epitiro utilized
its customer experience monitoring and competitor benchmarking solution ISP-I
to monitor ADSL broadband services from all of the UK’s leading consumer ISPs. ISP-I
periodically connected to the services from ten key geographic locations around
the UK
from April to June 2006.
