Ok. I know about the "accuracy" of simple speed tests and there are factors like wireless and local firewall to take into account.
However the results of the test on this site seem a tad variable.

I'm on the 10M service via STB so expect around 5M at best. Usually this test gives about 2M at this time. Tonight I'm getting that little peak. Shame the 3rd fig isn't more usual
