Hmm I got crappy results! I wonder if my wireless router is whats holding me back? I scored a lousy 2.94 down and 7.68 up. I got wireless G router I think. Can that make a big difference?

It wouldn't make a difference unless you're using a N network. Most people still use G networks, so it wouldn't surprise me if you are too.

Wireless is unreliable for connection, most of the time you don't get your full speed. That's why gamers hate Wireless stuff. I did, I've been gaming for Ten Years and I can't stand wireless. My internet speed would be going down and up while I'm scriming, which would make me lag, well others. Also others might be able to detect it and use your internet. My brother tried to on me when he lived behind my house, until I disconnected it. Then he started to use it off someone else and they, well one of them moved and he used wireless. Now he's doing it off, I don't even know. LOL CHEAP

3Mbps down 1Mbps up. If I shut down my web server it goes up to 8/6. It's doing a LOT of torrent work which eats half my BW.
