Speedtest.net results are always inaccurate. I get better grades in terms of packet loss from different servers, and where speed is concerned, their servers are always getting hammered and can't handle it. Their mobile app is HORRIBLE and totally unreliable.
But I joined the Mac test wave anyway.. I'm the one in Long Island City

I have no idea how accurate this is...but this result is very surprising. I live in an apartment building with 90% students (all download) and our internet is supplied by the building.

Tell me about it. We're paying $22.99 a month for those speeds... Still, it beats dial up. (The only other option out here)
