Can this be possible?
I'm on the mid package, with a router reported sync speed of 7776kbps.
My download speeds have averaged 5mbps or so, but this morning I managed 10434kbps on speedtest.net.
How is this possible?

It is not - try a different speed tester - they may well be mofiying that one or it has developed an error
The latency value suggests there is a problem anyway and your upload speed looks wrong as well
Having said that i've just tried it and it seems to be working ok for me

I don't really trust that site for speed tests, I prefer this one http://www.speedtest.bbmax.co.uk/
I find it a lot more accurate when I need a rough idea how the connection is doing but a good ftp site is the best indicator for a more accurate speed test try this one

Some Advice.. Its always advisable to inform your old ISP as soon as you have migrated that you have moved.
