I am at the other side of the house, using one of those wireless USB thingos. Gets the job done.

Which is actually better than I thought. Wonder if this test will work on my PS3 browser?

ahaha does that mean my e-penis is equivalent to an elephant's trunk?
I think it's an anomaly. I'm too scared to do another check though and see my real worth =P
*Edit*
The results of another speed test:
No, I have no idea what's going on either...

InvivnI, are you secretly stealing some large business's internet connection? Cause it sure seems like it.....(what with ADSL2+ only being like 20MBits/sec at the best)

Just because the figure being reported is that high, doesn't mean it actually is. Speedtests aren't entirely accurate, as can be seen below, a result I got a while back:
Whilst my ADSL2+ is physically connecting at ~18Mbps/1Mbps

These things are never accurate anyway, you are better off looking at the routers sync speeds
I am happy that I am not on 512k anymore was on it for years. This connection never drops out. Once in six months

We have Optus Cable Internet, which should have a theoretical maximum of around 30Mb/s... so clearly something's wrong with the test... unless we're in some super-secret fast broadband area...
I've never noticed super high-speed downloads or anything, likely because the download speed is restricted by the servers I download from anyway.

For those getting massive anomalies, see what you get downloading from steam, torrents, or a different speedtest site.

It'll be Optus' proxy server having cached most the downloads from that site it then reports your download from the proxy to the website to generate the result.
