Inbound speed seems to be very adequate.

However, outbound/uplink is very slow:

Testing from Europe (UK) the speed is not constant and stable. I was able to see 3-7Mbps at a maximum (350Kb/s - 873Kb/s).

Not very happy about that, hopefully something will be done to improve uplink speed to at least 10Mbps.
