I can't post pics here so I'll just explain

I used speedtest[DOT]net to check my connection speed however, Makati Server is pointed out to be my Recommended Server at a speed of 100 -200Kbps (during morning till night I get 50-70Kbps)  sad

While testing on different server like QC Server I'm getting a reading speed of 1054Kbps so thats 1MB... thats suprisingly fast than the recommended server...

How on earth did that happen... Is there a way that I can change the recommended server (makati server) into QC? what tweak should I do? thank you...

btw: Globe Broadband subscriber

make sure your using one of the permitted picture formats and just post it as an attatchment.   As to the  another test site, why not just use testmy.net and skip all the issues.

I've tested a few of those sites and some of them should 'Not' be offering speed tests. Some are 2Mbps too slow(tested on a 5.2Mbps DSL connection).  Even using the recommended speed test can give a false number if it is on your ISP's server(not an Internet based test).

The test on this site I find to be consistently accurate..
