Can you upload a test file to both web sites so we can test the download speed?

Uptime is also important and ServInt VPS rocks.

Can download a shareware program called DUMeter. will show you your actual download and upload speeds as you browse things.

I agree with this recommendation... but make sure the same amount of data is downloaded ... otherwise the numbers can be skewed (sustained throughput is sometimes different than initial)...

Thanks for the recommendation, DUMeter looks nice.
