On the contrary...

Using the Speedtest.net Mini, my speed is lame:

Download = 1039kbps
Upload = 530kbps

Two different methods of internet speed testing, two different results. Which to trust?
Neither. I believe speed tests are contrived and shouldn't be taken as an accurate measurement of your browsing experience.

You're probably better off mentally timing how long your routine activities take, such as getting on GMail, posting here, and downloading things here and there.
