Just how accurate is the speed test at the top nav bar????

I am on a supposedly 10 meg line

I ask because on adslguide i get 1.5 mbps

Ive run spyware check etc etc, reset my modem and that the best i get. On bandwidth place i get 3 meg max.

However on the test above on the nav bar i get:

1st 512K took 422 ms = 1213.3 KB/sec, approx 9998 Kbps, 9.76 Mbps
2nd 512K took 437 ms = 1171.6 KB/sec, approx 9654 Kbps, 9.43 Mbps
3rd 512K took 438 ms = 1169 KB/sec, approx 9633 Kbps, 9.41 Mbps
4th 512K took 437 ms = 1171.6 KB/sec, approx 9654 Kbps, 9.43 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 9735 Kbps, 9.51 Mbps

My upload speed is always around 500k btw on any test i do.
