I've been wondering if there's a consensus one which online network speed test is the best and most accurate. I've been using testmyiphone.com and iphonespeedtest.com and, not only do I get pretty different results within each specific test, I get dramatically different results between the two sites. With the former, I usually range between 800 & 1200 Kbps, while with the latter it's been between 300 & 500 Kbps.

Is there any site that can actually be trusted?

I am convinced testmyiphone.com is a division of AT&T. The speeds I get there are often double what the other sites report.

LOL, your not the first one to say that.

I can sure you that we are not a division of AT&T in any way. Testmyiphone.com is my own site and is no way part of any ISP or apple.

I made testmyiphone.com so I could have the best and most accurate iPhone speed test around because all the other ones that were around just sucked, they deliver extremely in accurate results. And I think I have made the best one around so far, and I keep working to make it even better.
