OK. NO test sites. I do not trust them. I want real world downloads. So go ahead and download the half dozen or so files you been wanting to do.

My browser checks for new versions on every page request - this is becuase I have a very fast connection, as you can see.

All you have to do is click back and then forward on that MSN test and it will give you out ragious speeds.

I once transferred a movie to myself using mirc at just over 2MB per second when I was on my schools network in my old dorm room. I also sent stuff to my roommate at about 600kb per second. I don't have any pics as that was last year. No more ethernet for me.:(

The MSN bandwidth tester is accurate because it's run off stellar servers. Throughput depends on the traffic of your ISP, their ISP and how many hits their server is getting at the time when your packets are received.

It is logical to conclude that a very high rating would mean that their server is not getting allot of traffic while a lower rating would mean that their server is swamped. This why you test four or five times and take the highest number because you want to make sure your getting the "true" speed when your/their servers are not swamped with requests.

Bellsouth says it 1.5Mbps downstream and 256Kbps upstream now I doubt they are giving me that speed.
