Go to http:\\www.spedtest.net then when you've done the test, look at the top of the page and you'll see "Your Results" click on that and it will show the results. At the right hand side you'll see links to your results that you can copy and then paste into the forum post. Hope this helps you.
Try it and then upload your results again.

As you can see, this is the difference between living in a city and living in a rural community. Notice the distance to server, 150 miles and 5,000 ft down in elevation. My internet connection uses fixed wireless technology, if I didn't have this option my only choice would be satellite based internet which is slower, unreliable and more expensive.

Depends on what your ISP allocation is that you pay for. I'm on Blueyonder and mine is 20 Meg. Yours isn't too bad, look at tkboxer's...

If you go on later, you'll probably get a much better speed, it depends on the Internet Traffic. I usually check mine, then check again about 15 minutes later. Just keep doing a check when you get a spare minute and you'll see that some days you'll get a faster speed.

Are you on fixed wireless by chance? Your speeds looks almost identical to mine.
