I tried this speed test site, but the results are not reported in a manner
that I find interpretable. I am looking for a site that reports download
and upload speeds as mbps, which is the measurement used by Verizon to
promote its various tiers of DSL service. The results on this site are
reported as latency, which is meaningless to me. I am connected directly to
the Internet via a DSL modem without a router and do not have wifi
capability, if that makes any difference for this particular test site.

Completely accessible with Jaws or VoiceOver. When the page loads, click
on the WiFi button and wait about 15 seconds. Then, arrow down the page to
view the test results. I use it all the time to check Internet
connections. The title is iPhone test, but you can use it with any
computer.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Accessible Internet Speed Test
Happy Independence Day, gang. My Internet service provider, Verizon,
informed me yesterday that my monthly bill for DSL broadband service
would be increasing by $5 per month starting this month. So I called
their customer retention help line and complained and was offered a free
upgrade of my DSL service to "DSL enhanced". But to insure that they
really upgraded my DSL service, I would like to test my internet speed.
Can anyone recommend a JAWS-accessible internet speed test site that does
not require installing Java, and whose results are easily interpretable?
Thanks.
Gerald
