"Very easy to use. DSL, Cable, Dial Up, you name it, this one test covers them all"Why would it matter which type of connection you have? Regardless, all that is being measured is the time to transfer a certain abount of data one way and another.How can something advertise itself as "the most accurate", when there is no real accurate way to measure your bandwidth? There are many factors that affect it. As someone mentioned earlier, the closest way to test your speed is to download a file from one of your ISP's servers. I called RCN and doubted their speed claims so they gave me a link to a large zip file located on one of their servers. The speed was close to what they said I should be getting, but that doesn't bear any reflection of the actual transfer speeds to the rest of the internet beyond their own servers (which sucked and is the reason I don't have them anymore).
More bandwidth to test with does NOT make it a accruate test. You lose speed over distance. It can't be helped. Closer the hop, closer the results. These are only good for a general estimate. Don't base crap off them.
What the crap! Comcast is supposed to be 6mbps d/l, all I get is a paltry 4.5 on a good day! Comcast you worthless piece of crap! A curse on you and your offspring! On a happier note, isn't Vanessa Marcil hot? Woooo!
These people are the lamest bunch of bozos on the planet. 15 tests at a time? That's crap. And the test is useless since so few can ever get to it. F them.
You want a accurate test here it is folks.Get a program like netpersec which gives you your total up and download at that moment. Then go and down load about 15 50mb or larger files. If one is downloading at 50KB another at 100KB and so on it doesn't matter. It will give you your total download at that time. So one locations crappy connection or another will even out because you will be looking at the combined total not just one.

Cant be accurate. I work at an ISP and I know my speeds are x20 the results this gives.
