Not a very good measure... only if you have a good line to that server. I have a 2Mbit line (tested) and it only gives me a 485Kbit rating.

It tests your line speed for a small small moment in time.

 I don't see the value in it.
 

------------------------------------------
Your line speed:
4080 Kbps
500 K bytes/sec
------------------------------------------
Your line speed:
529.9 Kbps
64.9 K bytes/sec
------------------------------------------
Your line speed:
574.6 Kbps
70.4 K bytes/sec

(same line retested 3 times over about 30 seconds. just in case anyone didn't understand)
Gone from the game. Please see Spikes or Nefarious for any Ahevents.net admin needs.

That’s interesting, I’m on a dial-up.
