Default ADSL speed test site

Hi Guys & Gals,

I have done a search but can't find what I want. I know it has been covered before, but what is the URL of that site you can go to that tests the speed of your internet connection.

I had Telewest connect up there ADSL and stuff. I ordered the 1MB but by mistake they only connected me at 256. I have called and they have upgraded me and it sure seems a LOT faster, but just want to check to make sure I am getting what I am paying for.

Cheers.

Sean..

Cheers Guys,

I got the following from Tiff's link:

Communications 750.9 kilobits per second
Storage 91.7 kilobytes per second
1MB file download 11.2 seconds
Subjective rating Good

So is that good, bad or what for a supposed 1MB link?????????
