Compare your Internet speed

Sounds like an error to me. Since you are sure as hell not connection to their server via ethernet.
So idk, well you are getting speeds well over what you're paying for (I would not complain :P ). My friend using rogers would hit 5MB/s (for a few sections every few seconds) depending what he's moving via SSL FTP, his normal speed is around 3MB/s. I've not experienced going well over my limit.
Also, this is a nice little test to try http://broadband.mpi-sws.org/transparency/bttest-mlab.php
I tried it got a green light for bittorrent, a friend tried it and he's using rogers and it showed that they where indeed limiting his upload.

Yay, no torrent throttling. I'm happy. And for some reason i'm only at 0.87mpbs upload at the moment, even though I'm advertised 1mpbs. Am I entitled to the speed I paid for, or not?

Technically yes, for me personally the limit is high enough I am not bothered by it.

I see. I called my ISP, and they said that there's no way to measure used bandwidth at the moment. So unlimited until they get it working!
