Speed test
I have discovered a great tool to measure a network speed between your computer and our servers. It is very easy to use and can provide interesting results, useful for any further investigation.
If you want to, please click the Begin Test button and when the test is done, please add a comment with the download and upload values, along with your location. It would be great if these tests are performed more times during this weekend and Monday.
Thanks and have fun.

690/212 on a cable connection in california, USA (i'm near oakland)
did it again got 732/269
just for kicks, tried a San Francisco, got 5318/349, and with san jose got 6981/361
strange that upload speeds are so much lower and dont change much over distance

Just did it again at 9.10pm Saturday Night here. The earlier one was done at about midday.
42/39.
Looking at the other numbers I think you know now why there are complaints from some and not from others.

Thanks for all comments.
Now we are going to make some changes to the switches and discuss all possible scenarios with involved third parties (InterRoute etc.).
When everything is done, another test can be performed.

I did a test last night, but I forgot to write down the exact result. I think it was something around 160kbps both ways.
I noticed a weird thing with the upload test, though; it shot up to 100% at a very high rate, then it stayed there and the rate dropped significantly before it said it was done. When it first hit "100%", the displayed rate was about double when it ended up as.
I just ran the test on BrainKing again and I got an abysmal 85/67. It doesn't seem to be a fluke, as accessing BrainKing pages seems unusually slow right now, too (slower than it's been at any time this year). Perhaps it's overloaded with people running this bandwidth test?
This is from New York. The speed test against a server in New York was 7806 / 760, which is close to my cable connection's max speeds both ways.
For what it's worth, my first test last night was in Firefox 2, while my test just now was in Firefox 3. For some reason the Flash will not load in my normal browser, iCab (which uses the same engine as Safari).
