My speed posted at something like 110/102 which sucks bad. Next comes the am I alone in this factor. Is it my connection, or is it several connections indicating a general locale, or provider, issue.

I understand that to this site the speed tests serve at least two functions: one to record speeds for prospective broadband buyers, and the second is to verify an account.

Immediately after any given test, a history that pops up shows speed tests results from top speed to low speed, with an option to search via a Zip Code. In my case, the first historical result shown was 10 days old - not useful information for troubleshooting.

Given the two uses for speed tests that I know of, I wish to propose an improvement to the speed testing page that would promote the ability to resolve the "am I alone" factor. So:

1. Make the results sortable by date.
OR
2. Create radio button input allowing the user to choose their testing intent and thus display results according to the user testing reason.
