Hi all,

Well i am @3000/800 Kbps profile and this is what i got from testmy.net speedtest.

::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Download Connection is:: 2932 Kbps about 2.9 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB)
Download Speed is:: 358 kB/s
Tested From:: http://testmy.net/ (Server 2)
Test Time:: 2007/01/20 - 1:19am
Bottom Line:: 51X faster than 56K 1MB Download in 2.86 sec
Tested from a 2992 kB file and took 8.36 seconds to complete
Download Diagnosis:: Looks Great : 8.71 % faster than the average for host (bell.ca)
D-Validation Link:: http://testmy.net/stats/id-8QCG4O9ER
User Agent:: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061204 Firefox/2.0.0.1

And before taking this test i cleared out all the temp files/ cookies and plus had cc cleaner and purge fox do their job just to avoid any cache-oriented result/s.
I usually get from 2.7meg upto 3.4 Mbps depending on the hour of the test done.

But the funny part is whenever i take download test from speakeasy.net or download any file from bell sympatico's server i never exceed more than 315kB/s on average i.e. @ 40% completion of the download. Tried many tweaks and registry amendment but all in vain.
Try these places to know exactly what speed you are are getting, i atleast calculate mine from here. Just stop the downloading @ 40% and multiply the kB/s that you get with 8.19 and you will get your result in Kbps. Like for me is 315kB/s i.e. 315 x 8.19 = 2579.85 (rounded to 2580Kbps).

ftp://download.sympatico.ca/modem/AlcatelDrivers1_6.exe
If you want to try out with a larger file ..
ftp://download.sympatico.ca/BS/SH-EF-031_Win.zip

Another place/s to try out are
- http://howfastami.com
-http://www.[this.site.has.been.blocked.for.spamming]/speedtest/test.php?m_id=23

So far i haven't found any test web site where i can actually get my exact download speed results as many factors are involved but these sites are pretty close to reality as far as i am concerned.

If anyone has any better site for the download test or any means to enhance my download speed capability, All suggestions are welcome and i will be grateful.
