Which is a lot more than can be said for some VM peering links and a huge number of oversubscribed local areas.

If Speedtest.net (try more than one of their major servers) isn't showing you your headline speed on a wired connection with the Superhub in modem modem and either direct into a modern PC or through a reasonable quality router then the first suspect is probably VM. By all means try multiple file downloads from other sources but downloading from anything within the VM network eliminates peering which is probably to blame for as many problems as oversubscription IMO.
