I like how it catalogs your old tests too.

You should compare it to another site though that we have used here quite a bit.

I bet you will see much lower speeds, perhaps as much as 50%.
Corey,
If you try different servers it will tell you who is sponsoring the test. This one was sponsored by speakeasy. I got the same results pinging the server in Seattle, WA 2400 mi away as I did Frederick, MD 24 mi away. lol guess that is what happens when you live in BFE and have an independent cable provider.

Heh, 4 computers, 2 folding, 1 overclocking, the other just my normal PC, plus my moms laptop, my sisters mac, and my dads computer. I think thats pretty good for 7 computers.

We were having server issues at that time this morning, well, most of the frickin' morning we had issues.

I could not get on at all, and then when I could, I could not surf here.
If he pushed the submit button more than once, it would quadruple post like it did.

I just pay for standard 6 megabit down from Comcast.
Now Jim up the street has the same service and package, but he gets around 6 megabit down I think.

I must be on a good node here, and my new cable modem I got last year helps too.
It is the Motorola 5120, leasing it directly from Comcast.
It is said this is the best modem money can buy for Comcast service.
