Nice work.
My speed is near to what they promise. So far I've been checking with a link in my ISP's software.

Cool, it's always nice to have different speed meters to test on. I usually test on Speedtest.net and dslreports.com's speed test if my internet seems slow.

Hi trusha
Thank you for providing a link for testing internet speed
Whenever I find my internet is slow,before I start doing anything else I will first check my Internet speed.
To check the internet speed I just log in to Speedtest.net where I get to know the speed in seconds.
If my speed is less than 2.5 Mbs then I will switch of my computer,modem and router for about five minutes.When I restart everything the speed will be fine.
If my internet speed is not increased, then only I will go for the routine works such as deleting temporary internet files,caches,cookies Browsing history,running anti virus as well as anti malware programs and defragmentation etc.
Happy mylotting
