Download Speed is:: 119 kB/s
Tested From:: http://testmy.net/ (server1)
Test Time:: Sun Jul 31 2005 23:49:09 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time)

Hey, amc11890.  Firewalls can sometimes interfere with your speed test.  For purposes of testing, try disabling your firewall and test again.  Also make sure that you aren't downloading anything else or that any other programs are utilising your connection while you are testing.  Try a test mirror close to you, found HERE. You can also try VanBuren's cablenut tweaks to maximize your connection, info found HERE.
