Wouldn't downloading a file and seeing the speed that it comes down at be a better guide? Unless the site you're getting the file from strangles it's speeds, of course.

Just wonderin'...

Single thread download tests aren't that accurate I have been told.

I'm still waiting for my 'up to 52M' from BT.  Seems that they have work to do outside the house

That site is no longer valid for decent tests. It gives me half speeds  (100/10).

This one gives me 212/18 which is what I pay for.
