To clarify what I said earlier, the speed as measured by the speed test was a blazing fast 65MB down and 35MB up but the actual experience of accessing sites outside of China and using a VPN connection the US is frustratingly slow and full of lengthy delays & dropouts. It's like a really bad DSL connection a lot of the time and even a simple Google search (which goes is directed through their Hong Kong site) can take a minute or more and will sometimes time out partway through loading the search results.
