A lot depends upon the remote server that you choose. One might have a server that is further from you than the other.?
I live in Oregon. I will get better speeds if I choose a server in San Francisco or San Jose, than if I were to select one in Texas. Even if both tests were run on the same test url.?

i agree on the ad-blocking feature so i installed brave...running brave, i ran a test on speedtest.net and was surprised to find download and upload results the same as when i do the test while running chrome....on both tests, my download speed was about 475mbps but upload speed was about 12mbps...seems reallyslow...seems obvious (mind you, i'm guessing) that the speed determinant is the provider, not the browser...is that correct?
I would think so.
