[QUOTE="Harryc, post: 122973"] She is correct..partially. Page loading speed would also be impacted by the traffic flowing through any number of routers and gateways between your PC and the test site. To see them for yourself, do a traceroute between your PC and the IP address of the test site. Every time that you do one, you should see fluctuations in the ping times to these 'hops'. This will prove the theory that speed would fluctuate. Also if you run a download speed test(like the speedtests at dslreports.com), you will very rarely see the same result if run multiple times.
