that's nothing. i hit over 750Mbit/sec by clicking on the BACK button :)

busted lol

that's a glitch on that test when you hit back instead of retest it doesn't download the file again so it reports insane connection speed.

DAMN THEY'VE FOUND ME OUT!

Hey how come sometimes when i hit the back button it calculates it as like negative 2 million killobits.

And could the back button method be used as a cache benchmark?

[mtnbikerjerry]

which sites?

www.dslreports.com ? www.computingcentral.msn.com ? www.2wire.com ?

Which sites are you guys getting these extreme line ratings when you click the back button on your IE?

[Chrisdafu]

Its 2wire.com. There is no back button so you gotta right-click and select back. I got 136,000k :D

bandwidthplace.com/speedtest

[john240sx]

yeah, what Jawsome said. that's the one i use.

when it gives you a negative number it reloaded the file that your supposed to download before the timer started. therefore giving you a negative bandwith reading.

i would think your system ram would affect this test more then cache (as in DDR, RDRAM, SDRAM)
