Speedtest.net is garbage for higher speed connections. Doesn't display accurate results for me at all (always something ridiculously higher than my DSL modem's sync rate). Brandon's test shows just that as FiOS doesn't go anywhere near that fast currently due to packages they offer (nor can the ActionTec really handle WAN to LAN of anything higher than 100Mbps or so). I myself use Web100 tests which are more accurate I've found. A real world download/upload to an FTP server somewhere nearby is a very nice thing to try however. There is an HTTP upload testing site ran by a University somewhere which I can't seem to find at the moment, but if you have a very fast connection, you can start up several connections to it and watch it max the upload out using a bandwidth monitor.
