Well I would ping somewhere in Las Vegas from where you are. Bungies main datacentre is in Vegas, somewhere. If you ran a speedtest it was probably to a local speedtest server. my ISP host one 26 miles away. The only real thing I use it for is to test my connection to my ISP. The thing I was trying to make you think about was what other devices are you using on your own LAN, before it even hits your ISP. Think on a Plug and Play setup like the 3 Stooges all trying to get through the door at the same time QoS is like supercharging your LAN. You are in control of how and when an application or a device sends data on your network.
