If you see the reference value, you're well within the spec.
 
Between -27 and -8 dBm
 
Those numbers look good to me.

I made it...

Pope Francis might be checking the Internet speed at his new digs.

i forgot when i found TestMyNet, probably before 2011? anyways i went looking for other speedtesting websites exactly because i heard ISPs around the world and in my country(singapore) are literally bribing Speedtest dot net to give their consumers/clients faked results.

the only other consisent way i could to check my IRL download speed was to torrent large files, then check the avg download speeds, but that way is impossible to pinpoint slowdowns due to country-to-country throttling(which supposedly my ISP is also hiding /covering up), torrent sources come from all over the world(mostly USA it seems).

xs1, when you go to select server, click on multiserver at the bottom and only select the 2 fastest servers by you.  Then do a manual 200mb test and retest it a few times.  As for upload it doesn't multithread so you can test both servers individually on a 200mb manual test and see what one gives you the best speed.
 
You are getting close.
 

The most common question that people ask us is why their results here differ from speedtest.net. I want to explain something that may help you understand why this is.

According to the Ookla Wiki [updated link] the following is true about your tests taken at speedtest.net...
The fastest 10% and slowest 30% of your results are DISCARDED The remaining data is averaged together to determine the final result Throwing away the fastest 10% and slowest 30% of the results in my opinion does not make for an accurate test. Isn't THAT the data that you're here to see?

Also note this isn't only true for speedtest.net. Ookla is huge, most of the speed tests online run their software.

Multithreading makes your connection look better
Ookla speed tests are also multithreaded. Meaning that they open more than one connection to the host and combine the speeds. This often can mask congestion issues. For instance, imagine that you have a pipe along your route that's limiting you to 10 Mbps. If you open more than one connection through that pipe you'll be able to achieve a faster speed... but testing that way will not clue you in that there is actually a problem along the route. Remember, you shouldn't have to multithread your connection to pull your full speed.  
 
Multithreaded speed tests, like the majority out there, are designed to benefit the Internet provider not the consumer.  They often display your maximum throughput not your throughput over the course of an entire upload or download.  Omitting the worst portion of your test resulting in inflated scores that may make you feel warm and fuzzy but aren't going to help you see and resolve connection issues.
 
Multithreading can show that you're able to max out your connection by combining the speed of concurrent connections but a great connection can max out without having to multithread.


So, if you have to multithread your connection to get your full speed, you should be asking why that is.  With TestMy.net it's instantly apparent if there is a congested route. Your speed here reflects the actual loading time of data within your browser... not the combined efforts of multiple threads being altered (dropping the top 10% and bottom 30% of the results) and added together, all through a plugin that isn't suited for the task.
 
:: EDIT ::
If you'd like to multithread with TMN, I offer that as well.  Try the multithread speed test.  TMN's multithread test gives you the option to select from an array of servers.  Allowing you to test across multiple routes, to more than one server at a time.  TestMy.net is the only Internet speed test with this ability.

So THAT'S why your results differ.   --  TestMy.net is a harder test to ace and a lot less forgiving than other speed tests.  But isn't that what a benchmark should be?

:: EDIT ::
Another thing to consider is if you're running windows, particularly if it's older than Windows 7 you may need to tune your TCP stack to see your full speeds. Windows doesn't always come out of the box optimized for fast connections. Flash based speed tests fail to detect this problem.

To make this change for free I recommend TCP Optimizer. This makes changing those settings very easy and nearly fool proof. Just open it, slide the bar over to your speed that you're supposed to have, check "modify all adapters" ...apply the settings and reboot. You should have faster speeds after your re-test if that was the problem.

Here's an outside source talking about exactly this issue, I'll hunt down more examples. >> Download Speed Test - Something fishy?

Hey that's amazing thanks for getting back to me - did you make any progress with the beta?
 
I have a little script that tests on the command line using ping but would love one that uses your latency measure instead
 
 
 
thanks!

Bom dia Brasil

Pensei que poderiam gostar de saber que existe um novo servidor em São Paulo onde a população é maior e com Latência Baixa também no o Rio de Janeiro. 

Em 2025, o Brasil tem 183 milhões de pessoas conectadas à Internet talvez o 5º do Mundo? e talvez o 3º onde passam mais tempo na Internet.
