Meanwhile the average upload speed remained fairly stable at 1.261Mbps.

Cable operator Virgin Media continues to be the fastest overall ISP with an impressive average download rate of 14.302Mbps (down from 15.180Mbps in October). It also continues to hold the top spot for upload speeds at a stable 2.449Mbps, although Eclipse Internet is beginning to threaten both positions.
