I'd have to agree. I have a 7Mbps Qwest DSL connection and Cnet only showed
1.8Mbps. A reload gave me 30Mbps (aren't caches great?)! test.lvcm.com was
more accurate showing 6.12 down and 712Kbps up (pretty much "wire" speed).
sea.speakwasy.net (Seattle server) showed 6Mbps down and 746Kbps up.
Actually http://netspeed.stanford.edu/ is my favorite. Look at the
"statistics" and "more info" windows. Interpreting the data? Good luck.
