Is this a good quality connection for me? I have Lightning Max with MTS Ultimate. I have a second router running behind the 2wire.
Here's my results:

How come I can never hit 15 dpwn or 2 up like they say?

Thanks,

That looks good to me. I think 15/2 are theoretical. Sort of best case scenario.
I'm getting the exact same speeds as you. South St.Vital.

Keep in mind that speedtest is just an approximation, since it uses small files. Upload speeds are usually less accurate that download speeds. Also there is a certain amount of TCP/IP overhead.

I just ran speedtest twice and got an upload speed of 1.84 Mbps. Then I uploaded a 3MB file to Google Docs and got a steady speed of 0.246 Megabytes/sec. (1.97 Mbps) as measured by Windows Task Manager.

Also keep in mind that they say speeds "up to" 15 Mbps. They don't guarantee speeds Looks decent to me!

Okay, thanks, BTW, I live in the Ft. Garry area. I am liking having faster speeds as I have had Classic Tv up until 2 weeks ago!
