I've done these tests before in the recent past and get upwards of 5 megabits/sec download speed. But I noticed something else last night that makes me wonder if there might be something else at the source or distribution network.

I was running Apple's Software Update and watching it download the large OS updates. I was just using wall clock time and noticing that it was regularly downloading 10 megabytes in 9-10 seconds. This works out to better than 8 megabits per second. Curious… maybe they bumped the speeds, maybe there are other sources of measurement error. Either way, I'm content.

Comcast in Milford, NH. DSL doesn't reach my neighborhood last I checked. Too far from a CO.
