The thread on 'Show off your internet speed' intrigues me. Broadband speed test results can be very high but is this achievable in actual daily usage? I believe that when it comes to the actual download speed achieved this depends on the upload speed of the site that you are downloading from?
Microsoft's Windows update, for example, has only so much bandwidth which has to be shared out amongst all people downloading at that time so it probably throttles the upload speed so the end user will get nowhere near their bandwidth capability.
Am I understanding this correctly?
