Comcast uses speed burst. It runs super fast for a few seconds, then it goes down to 8 meg or less.

I would be willing to bet ---my bottom--- that Comcast also boosts the throughput when detecting traffic to sites like speedtest.net just to boost their stats. :laugh2:

I just wish our provider could get the ping times down, but there's only so much you can do with a wireless link to the local cell tower. (obviously, there's no cable, dsl, or fiber in our area)

I don't really trust this result though. It's way too fast. It would mean I reach the theoretical limit of the connection. That cannot be right?
Wonder how fast it will be on the 20Mb ADSL in my new house. I doubt it will be faster. I mostly got that because it's cheaper though.

So I got my new (up to) 20MB ADSL connection and indeed it's a lot slower :-[
