speedtest.net(the one everybody is using in this thread) : 2461/425
speakeasy.net : 5160/421
toast.net : 3333/314
dslreports.com : 1934/431
pcpitstop.com : 2070/438

those #s are like a shotgun blast all over the map....but i only pay $25/month for my home phone service & dsl
I tried twice before posting, both got about the same numbers on that site.


ps, home phones are for old people.
