Speed test differences

Post by thed »

I have Comcast Cable and am using a wireless connection with an Intel 7260 ac. I seem to get widely different speeds quoted between Speedguide and that other site.

For example:
13275 kbps down (~13.28 Mbps, 1621 KB/s) ↓
6284 kbps up (~6.28 Mbps, 767 KB/s) ↑

Details:

10240 KB downloaded in 6.319 seconds
5120 KB uploaded in 6.675 seconds
Speed @ 167% of the average for il.comcast.net
250 times faster than 56k dialup

versus
56.81 mbps download
11.89 Mbps upload

I think I believe Speedguide's results based on general performance but any ideas for the big differences.
