I've used TMN occasionally but never asked a question until now. 

1.  How do I post a question containing a TMN Results graph that I would like you to comment on?   I tried to cut and paste; that just made a mess.  Sorry, if there are guidelines on the site, I failed to find them.

2.  When an ISP sells service described as “up to xxx Mbps”, does a customer have any reasonable expectation of typical or average speed or just have to accept whatever what is provided (Hobson's choice)? If car has an advertised 25 mpg highway but only gets that when coasting down a steep grade and gets only 5 mpg on the level, that would never be accepted. My internet service is that bad.

3. What information do you like to see in a question, i.e., ISP, purchased speed, modem, computer processor, OS, cable length and type between computer and modem, etc?

Above tests were run using a Gateway SX2801, 3 GHz dual core processor, 6 GB ram, Win7, nothing running except Firefox and TMN. 50 ft Cat 5e cable between modem and computer.  Note that at 6:09:25 am, DL speed hit 256.83 Mbps so my equipment is capable of supporting at least that.
