Speedtest from me to (at about 4:25pm PST): New York, NY -- 102ms ping, 69.7 Mbps download, 6.0 Mbps upload Saskatoon, SK, Canada (where my daughter lives) -- 84ms ping, 66.7 Mbps download, 6.0 Mbps upload London, UK -- 153ms ping, 62.1 Mbps download, 5.9 Mbps upload Tucson, AZ -- 32ms ping, 70.9 Mbps download, 6.0 Mbps upload -- David E.
