The best test of speed is to download one of these files and monitor the download speed.  Linking to a site that downloads a file from a remote computer is not accurate due to the inability to control the connection between our servers and the servers on the remote end.  Simply click one of the files below and save it to a location on your computer.  With Internet Explorer when the download is complete you will see a transfer rate value on the pop-up window, multiply that number by 8 to get your approximate bandwidth.
