I think the download site gets slow. I know I have atleast a 200kb a sec (in storage) it say about 175.
My estimations for a 1mb file donwload.
56k: 5 min
Cable: 5 seconds

One really needs to do several test and then take an average to get a clear result. Here test to your hearts content. :D

Many of these test give you your upload speed as well. The best I could get from a test site that was within a few hundred miles was 2800/152 K
