Internet speed

[PCDummy]

I have wireless internet service and there is a little connection status window in my taskbar that says the speed is 54.0 Mbps. Yeah I know that that is bits but still isn't that a little fast? Quite often I don't think that I am getting that download speed even though it tells me that it is.

54Mb/sec. is the hardware rating of the Wireless it has very little to do with the actual "Speed".
