Do you notice how America, the first Internet Country, has about the SLOWEST ISP speeds!!!!!!
Same goes for Cellular Technology!

I've had download speeds over 25,000 from time to time when I've checked. I'm sure there are those out there with faster. Probably a few fios people that can get up in the 50's or better.

Every once in a Moon..........I can download a Movie Torrent at the rate of 750 KBs. Most of the time it is around 25 to 175 KBs. Capital "B".
Do not know what that equates in to Real Speed.?!
I am envious!
And YES!!!!! ALL my connections are GOOD as are any of the Splitters.
But let us not forget that I live in a City of 12M and a building of 120 Units!!!!
Oh to be solo and Fast!!!

Different servers provide different results, but it gives the ballpark.
Everytime I call Time Warner to bitch about the speed, it suddenly doubles on these test for about an hour or so.

I don't know, but everytime we post these speed test things, everyone is that way. Must be one of the laws Al Gore set up after he invented the internet.
