I'm not worried about the slow downloads. In fact, it's impressive. I'm just trying to understand why this works. The difference might be from a high-speed compression server or maybe Steam is doing something special.

Your current plan offers 100Mbps, yet SpeedTest shows around 110 Mbps. It might be a temporary boost from an unusual connection.

The issue is that I consistently score 60-100 on speed tests from sites like Ookla and Google. I haven’t encountered anything impressive, even with popular torrents, matching steam’s performance. My ISP might be offering extra bandwidth, but that would likely come with a dull response. I’m looking for alternatives. (oof, too many sentences)

It appears the numbers are precisely determined and shown. Steam employs various units compared to service providers.

I adjusted the unit to mega bits in the settings, which should match what you had before. Previously, it was mega bytes, but I preferred the change.

The variation is just 10 to 25 megabits. It could be a misread, but it seems improbable.

I really wouldn't doubt it. If I'm receiving a quicker result than what's claimed, I'd simply agree and smile.

Maintain identical compensation for 100% to achieve 125% results.

Use a different speedtest server from a nearby location for better results.

Occasionally I see download speeds listed on different sites ranging from 30 to 40 Mbps, but that’s unrealistic since ADSL usually maxes out near 20 Mbps, and my connection only provides 10 to 12 Mbps. These numbers seem off.
