Man I gotta to get Shaw...I am only getting 159. Actually speed from shaw depends on how many people are on that line(sorta like party lines) ASDL is independent on the number of users on the line...just the distance from the hub

I'm with Shaw.

Last Result:
Download Speed: 3637 kbps (454.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 486 kbps (60.8 KB/sec transfer rate)

S-L-O-W ! ! !

But still faster than what I get at work.

Tried the Speakeasy site, not sure why it would be more accurate with smaller files but get downloads of 461KB/sec through Seattle and 258KB/sec with Chicago.

Still way off from the 5MB but guess comparable to others.

I use cable net on the island...and my speeds lately are absolutely AWFUL! Sorry to say but at least this shows me, it's not just me! It makes online gaming very painful at times.

I,m with the local Westman cable and with Speakeasy, {Seattle}, mine shows 5753 up and 928 down. However when loading sites like Fox & CNN news and others such as TSN, my computer is sooooo slow, its terrible. And I thought I had a decently fast set up.
