Govt Seed test

This .gov speed test is more accurate, consistent, proven, more or less centrally located, and provides diagnostic data

But apparently incapable of testing anything more than about 10mbps. I just tested from California, Florida and Texas all with very high capacity connections and they all capped at about 11mbps (should have been between 20-100mbps based on the connections used). The test might be okay for those below 10mbps...but nothing higher.

It looks like there is a slow internal link at »miranda.ctd.anl.gov/ that is causing the limit.
Someone must have added a slow router.
