The test results say that the speed from your phone or pc or whatever to the box the isp gave you "the hub" is 25Mbps
That would be a sensible and useful thing for it to do. But it should Shirley indicate that by greying out the 'Network' globe and dotted line between it and the Hub. And not call it 'Broadband speed'.
Yeah, the magic speed test screen is junk
But then again Internet providers don't make it clear that the "internet speed" depends on so many external factors that providing a number (like they do) is meaningless
They should be forced by law to provide a standardised set of metrics for things like
- local loop latency
- local loop bandwidth
- ATM network route speed, your exchange to ISP endpoint. If it can route to alternative, that too
- ISP to a real address in US/EU Central/Asia pacific latency and bandwidth
- ISP to various shopping basket of providers like BBC, Google, Facebook (taking caching into account)
Stats should be max,min,average,variance,99 percentile etc
