Any speedtest will be flawed using these big sites. I dno't know, but would expect this bandwidth to be highly prioritized. These are more about what our system and network can support than what anyone would see during real world use.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">Scott McBrien <smcbrien@gmail.com> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

I would not gauge the results of those boxes as being accurate as the application hits other servers on the Comcast network and as Comcast actively uses QoS to service packets...
