Found this the other day while looking for a Broad bean speed tester
Lots of good info on ISPs etc.

If you register you can save the results of the tests ans view them in graphical form...

I've pretty much given up on most of these things now because you get a different result for every one you go to. I feel the best results come from just downloading a file from the likes of Microsoft or Sun... of course you wouldn't get upload results from that...
Just be a nutter... life becomes much more exciting, and people won't expect anything more of you...

I agree, the results tend to differ.
BT's own speedtest tends to alway give me 2 Mbps, even if I've been DLing torrents at least twice that.

What I like about this is the tracking. I can see if it worsens at certain times etc.
Started looking into when BT are throttling my connection because I'm a heavy user.
