Default Speed test results...

I've finally managed to sort out my 20Mb connection, strangely though, speed test results show me as having around 3-6Mbps although I am able to download files at 15Mbps (I haven't really pushed it as much as I could yet I don't think). Does anyone else get the same issue?

ps. Yes I have stopped all downloads when running the tests

I've mentioned this 20 or 30 times - don't trust speedtesters.

depends on a load of things, how close you are to the exchange box, remote computer speed / location, time of day, how many people are on the same line as you ect...
