This is my wireless speed right now with my laptop; not as much as it could be during the day since everyone is home right now and doing their things. Have 3 TVs streaming Netflix/Hulu in the house, at least 3 laptops going right now.

You should get near identical speeds on speedtest and fast. If you're seeing differences, then your connection is too variable and is the ISP's issue.

that's kinda the point though. fast.com is netflix and many isp's will change the speed between high-traffic sites

It's not like you have the whole internet at your fingertips or anything.

Huh? How does that affect anything? Speediest is just random third party servers it uses to check speeds. Netflix will simply tell you Netflix is being throttled and nothing else.

Most people use the internet for more than Netflix.

4.0 on fast.com

Granted, I am on a wireless connection at work with the router in the literal opposite corner of the building and a ton of interference due to all the coolers/freezers in between.

Rather people use their site of choice.
Google has one built in, speedtest.net, fast.com, I think most ISPs have their own.

Sure, but any high traffic site is likely to be high on their throttle list which means fast.com is more representative of the speed you're getting (assuming you use those more popular and demanding services that get throttled)

Not really. There has only ever been evidence of throttling happening with Netflix and YouTube (and BT but this won't help).

Also the original post was saying speedtest is not accurate and not to use it. You should actually run both if anything.

Speediest tells you your speed connected to the internet. Fast tells you your speed in case there's any throttling with Netflix and has not been linked to anything else.
