Recommended Tests

I went away on vacation and when i came back my speeds have been way up. I used to have just 8Mbps/768 Kbps up
now i get this

What is the reason with that?

Ah sorry for bad typing on the first post. I have Comcast internet, my regular speed was 8/768. I just downlaoded microsfot office 2007 trial and it started at 3.06 Mbps and ended at 2.60 Mbps, is that just powerboost? the download was 300 megabytes. If it was just powerboosted i thought that just lasted a few seconds. Also FIOS is only a few miles (less than 10) away,i dont know if that has anything to do with it.
EDIT: Oh and all last week my modem kept freezing itself.

So its definitly not permanent speeds? So it will go down after a bit of time?
Im not new, i juse never post i think i have been here a year >_>

I've been getting this or better on their standard 6 meg plan for over a month

My ISP is Earthlink, but provided by Comcast now that Time Warner is gone from the Houston area. And it's STILL $3 a month cheaper than Roadrunner or Comcast. 

I thought maybe you had been swallowed by a volcano or, or picked up by cute aliens, or something.

I uplaoded at 250 Kbps all day for a linux torrent and i downloaded hl2 with solid 2.0 MB the whole time. I think this is lasting longer than speedboost should. it sometimes goes up to 500 Kbps upload but then drops down to 250-300
