hi i test the speed of my internet in many sites i got the best speed results from here http://www.ip-details.com/
my results are
download=1.09Kbps
upload=0.87Kbps
i dont know the reason why my speed seems to be slow many of them said that if Cable Internet services share bandwidth with satellite Internet access.
If there are many subscribers using that same bandwidth, it can slow down the connection. kindly guide me how to solve this problem .

Not tested in a long time.
I don't remember if I've ever stated, but I now have a samknows.com router. It monitors montly for me. Have had it since December of 20010, 3 months before my local upgrade.
Figures. I signed up so FCC would know that Comcast sucks.
Then they upgrade my particular area.
Ah well, I'm still enjoying it.
Also, just checked my net usage Comcrap meter... I got netflix in October..went from ~70GB average usage to ~115.
I'm considering cancelling TV during the next rate hike and going internet only (Netflix/Hulu Plus, torrent for other shows not available through PS3 media server/Tversity/, and a Roku I've asked for for Christmas 2011) in addition to HD attic mounted antenna.
I can only imagine I'll be hitting 200GB of my 250GB limit.

I just realized that my speedtest results from work were no longer visible. So here they are again! [nobrag]
Although, if it makes you guys feel any better, my home network gets about 4 Mb/s down, 1 Mb/s up :( And that's if we're lucky!
Megiddo:
I call foul on Stickly Man's result, since the link between his school and the server he's using is a huge backbone for the area. Show us results to another server!
Anyways, here's the results from my school. Surprisingly good! Don't mind the censor, just don't want crazy ULX fans hanging out at my school bugging me while I'm researching. :)
Stickly Man!:
I agree that my last work results were unfair, so I did it again. This time with a somewhat better work computer (which may not affect the speed at all), and I'll use UEN's speedtest.net server now that they have one!
WHOOOOOOOOO!!
.. Okay fine, here's the results to a server in Bangor, Maine, on the other side of the US:
For ~2,200 miles, that's still pretty great :P
And because I was bored here's a test to Frankfurt, Germany:
And now you know how distance can affect internet speed! Yay!
We're getting Comcast internet at home tomorrow, so I'll probably be doing some tests from home on our new internets.
