Remember that ISP's quote speeds in kbps (kilobits per second) whereas LW uses KB/s (KiloBytes per second) & 8 bits = 1 Byte. Also depending upon how far from the ISP you are there will be overhead losses in transmission speed such as line speed losses. Overall, you may lose 5-25% of speed quoted by ISP. Best test is to do a speed test using a browser with only your browser open.
