I do have some doubts about these speed test softwares.
Rony, Rony... a few days back you said:
"Guys, please do a speed test to get actual figures."
So which is it? Do you trust speed tests or do you not?
I would like to trust them but my last experience was weird.
Right now, my EDGE only Samsung Star phone gives a speed result of 1509 Kbps on mobilespeedtest.com
On dslreports.com, I get a message to choose a larger file, so I choose 1 MB abd it says "Unstable/too fast a result (1.427s) pleasechoose alarger file". 1 MB is their largest file.
On ISPgeeks.com, my test result is 4 Mbps. Wow! Before doing the tests, I had cleared by browser cache.
Binand, could you check your email settings. Everytime I reply to a list message of yours, it goes to your email id only.
