    It all depends on what the ISP is doing! As an example, in Thailand the ISP's using 'Inline Cache', which means that the ISP's caching the highest frequented Internet Servers on their own Server. Speedtest will never show the real connection speed if that is used. To find out what you're really getting, check out the speed test from http://www.dslreports.com. Look at the 3 pictures below:

    1.: BKK to BKK [​IMG]

    2.: BKK to NewYork [​IMG]

    3.: BKK to Singapore using DSL-Reports speed test: [​IMG]

    The first 2 pics showing the use of the speed test of ADSL Thailand (http://speedtest.adslthailand.com/) while the 3. pic is using the DSL-Reports Speed Test.

    The next 2 picture showing the use of Ookla Speed Test

    As you all could see, it's all about what kind of speed tests are used and from and to what locations. And if the ISP use Inline Caching, the result will even differs more.[/Spoiler]

    i'm still at ADSL, it's not as fast as i would like but that's fine, i am not complaining for now.
    Optic fiber is still a litle bit expensive in my country so i don't want to switch to fiber yet.
