    Download Speed: 888 kbps (111 KB/sec transfer rate)
    Upload Speed: 193 kbps (24.1 KB/sec transfer rate)

    it's more accurate than any i've come accross..

    1.3megs-861 kpbs down 133 kpbs up.

    i think the speakeasy site is more accuate that the mcafee one, because you can choose a closer server to you're location, and it depends on the time of the day as well, from morning(6am or so) to 6pm i download at about 1.3 megs.

    I got a DL speed of 2231Kbps and 275Kbps as UL using the speakeasy.net test and selecting Dallas as the location (closest to me). It came out to a transfer rate of 278.9KB/Sec DL and 34.4KB/Sec UL. I have a broadband cable modem connection with a 3 megs of service so those numbers seem correct to me, if i am reading it right. I tried some of the other locations and the numbers were in the mid 1500s for DL and about the same average of 275 for UL.
