Ask sietec, he regularly pulls up to 900+ Mbps here. He's our speed all star around here but there are many more examples. There are many factors that affect results here. Just keep trying to best your own speed... don't always expect to get 100% of ISP claims. Routing across the net needs work and depending on the servers and networks you connect to your results will be varied. TestMy.net tests are harder to ace too. Having said that... TMN offers testing in many different ways. Single thread, multithread and to popular CDN services like Google PageSpeed and Cloudflare networks. To get a complete picture you need to try them all. Each test type provides different insight. Usually multithread is a good way to max out your line but that only tells part of the story. For some, multithread is slower. Really depends on the connection type and client machine. I have something new I'd like to share with you.... but you have to wait a little longer. It puts the control of testing TOTALLY in the consumers hands. You can test from virtually any source, file type and file size on the Internet. The test looks and behaves just as you've come to expect from TestMy.net. Looks exactly the same except you can test against any almost any web server on the net. It's really easy too, input a url... that's it. I've seen up to 500 Mbps results with it so far. I'm going to open it up to allow even larger test sizes to help people with 1000+ Mbps connections pull longer tests... which allows the connection to fully ramp up and will yield higher accuracy. I've tested hundreds of servers. From Google, Apple, Amazon, Facebook... nearly every server I've tried it on works perfectly and the results are verified by network interface readings. This update is already live and actually has been built into TMN's code for at least two years..... maybe up to 4-5 years, I really don't remember. I just forgot about it until I recently found a reference to it in the code. "Wait a minute..." --- searching for the variable I noticed turned up tons of results across my entire structure, deeply engrained into the program. It instantly worked and was highly accurate so I've build a database driven input system around it. I imagine that we can build a list of hundreds of thousands of test servers in short time. You can find the servers that work best for you and compare the results to my preferred test servers/methods. I really want to just share it with you now. But I need to put the finishing touches on it and I'm driving through Pennsylvania heading to CT and NY. I should be able to sit back at my console and finish up on Sunday the 7th... releasing on Monday Sept 8th. Open beta available to all. Giving you full control over where you test will give you a more realistic representation of your real speed. Using servers like Google, Amazon.. etc you can once and for all show your provider, "These are my speeds to very standard services. If you can't deliver my promised speed to these ultra powerful servers I'll find someone who will! Look, other people are able to pull faster speeds, why can't I..." I think you guys will dig it. I hope that it helps people understand their bandwidth better and puts pressure on the ISPs to deliver what they claim... across the board not just to limited locales like is often the case today. I aim to start revolution. But I always need your help spreading the word. Tell your friends! This site 100% relies on word-of-mouth. I'll update this topic when it's released. Coincidently happens to be right about the time you get home.
