Rogers and Bell have web sites for testing your internet speed. The
advantage of using one should be that it is a pretty pure test of the
ISP's infrastructure.
I know that Bell has tuned their traffic management rules to prioritize
speed test sites.
I would be very surprised if Rogers is not also doing the same thing.
The Bell and Rogers hosted sites are the most likely to take advantage
of traffic management to enhance their stats.
So you may get results that are close to the maximum that the network
can support but nowhere near what the network is able to deliver under
its current load.
Network performance testing is best done with tools like iperf.
