It looks really slick. But does it function any better?

I saw some stupid glitches in the old version, where it might read say, 15Mb through most of the download, then momentarily jump to 25Mb or more right at the end and declare my connection speed as 25Mb. My line speed was only about 20Mb in the first place. :rolleyes:

speedtest.net is a flash test which can have problems at times. if it's being weird you should try a java one, they're the most accurate it seems.

http://myspeed.visualware.com/index.php is reliable in my experience, it's a java test instead of flash.

Heh that's work. We recently got upgraded at home though and getting about 30 down up from 8 for the same price. The result shown above is like the norm in places like South Korea and Finland to name a couple. Or in Sweden like our buddy Frick who's wicked fast line is "included in the rent". Sigh. :)

the speakeasy test still gives me the more accurate results. anyway, i am pissed because this line costs me $65.99/month which is fine but the next step up is 50/20 connection and that is $144.95! they do offer 150/35 connection for $199.99/month tho!
