These speedtests are pure unscientific bs and I'd love to see them called out on the carpet for it.
As far as I know, it's possible for the end-to-end reported values to be lower than your immediate upstream due to issues further upstream. But if it reports 20MBbits/sec down and 5MBits/sec up, then the link is able to go *at least* that fast. (If anybody's got evidence of it reporting more than the link is technically capable of, feel free to correct me...)
