I've found a new internet speedtest. Looks like the slickest yet. My best result is 6246 kb/s.

Here's my result. Pretty much as expected for a 1500/640 account.


Interesting that they identify the ISP as AGT. How long ago did AGT merge into Telus?

I'm suppose to get 5000 down and 512 up but it's been down around 800 to 3000 depending on the time of day and last year it was worse. They did some work on my line on Wed. and now I'm getting some good results.

I can't find anywhere on this one to max out my connection.. DLS Reports has one though:

Of course, this is using a hotel connection in the middle of old Brussels beside some like 500 year old church so I didn't think it'd be very fast

Presque Isle is the closest server to me, I find it odd that a small town in Maine would be there above somewhere like Halifax or even Montreal.
