I tried 2 additional sites (the link above never returned):

On the Mac:

testmy.net:
Download: 17.1 Mbps
Upload:      9.1 Mbps

Speed.io:
Download:   25.252 Kbit/s
Upload:        2.530 Kbis/s

speedtest.net:
Download:   19.28 Mbps
Upload:        1.52 Mbps



On the Fedora (Lenovo) box:
testmy.net:
Download: 2.6 Mbps
Upload:      2.8 Mbps

Speed.io:
Download:   2.704 Kbit/s
Upload:        1.458 Kbis/s

speedtest.net:
Download:   3.77 Mbps
Upload:        2.75 Mbps



Anyone have any thoughts?
