I'm on IBB too and the test here has never shown me on anything greater than 700 down. But when I let my torrents max my line (for testing), I get pretty much max up and down most times.

Obviously your 218 is worse than my 700 but trying a few more tests on different sites and trying torrents will give a more complete picture. I like testing with torrents as if a few users in the swarm are slow it won't affect your bigger picture as you're connecting to 100s of users so no one slow user is slowing you down.
