For a reliable benchmark of "getting what you pay for" you need to be plugged into the router with ethernet. Short cable, not a 30 footer.

The speed you are paying for is to the router, not your computer.

For instance if you are paying for 15 mbs but your computer is old and only has a 10 mb network card....
