I would love a "working" means of testing my current download AND upload speeds at-will. My Verizon DSL seems to fluctuate and I'd love to be able to tell on a whim what it is. Not really have it update on its own... but allow a user to initiate the speed test(s) at will.

Sound do-able...?

Either I'm missing something... or the link is outdated... but there are no widgets there that measure current Download and Upload speeds of your internet connection. The only one I've seen here was "Speedo" and not only was it for download speed only (no upload)... it never worked for anyone. I could never get it to launch.

Thanks anyway.
