Those results indicate exactly why the generic 'Begin Test' button (which selects your closest server) is a bad idea.

Fails on my side as well. Maybe SA's broadband has just fallen behind so much that we are just too slow for the world to bother anymore.

Looks a little more like the Speedtest mobile app now and continuity is a good thing. The only thing I don't like is the dial running all the way up to 100meg... That's just rubbing 4meg in... :cry:

Horrible interface.

Try beat UCT - and they say Honors students and above pull higher speeds. This is ridiculous. What you can expect when you have your own ISP.

The new site is the bomb! It looks cool! The problem is that we use a great site to give you crap news!

Not seeing the same speeds at University of Pretoria (perhaps it was a "busy" time of the day I tried)...
At least it's working now. Wasn't showing in Chrome over the weekend. Eager to try it out at work tomorrow. Just wonder what the CSIR folks get...
