Re: speed test...
I use this place to conduct my speed test. It doesn't download any large files to my knowledge but does give an accurate result.
You could also try downloading a linux ISO which is going to be bigger than 200Mb to see what speeds you get.
Try here

Bit poor for 10Mbps
Try downloading this Linux ISO for a test.

Re: speed test...
The speed test at dslzoneuk.net that Cerberus posted just keeps looping round asking me to confirm my connection speed...
I select 2MB.... click begin.... wait a minute and it asks me again and again, never tells me my speed!
