Wow! I'm jealous... Is it just the one device you ran your speed test on? I'm running 20 IP Phones on the connection I tested during peak hours.  What do you pay for such an amazing connection?

I am using the least 4G coverage, and I am going to change to another "telco"(for connection reasons) , I paid 20 bucks for 1.5GB internet, 500MB for video streaming, 20 minutes for voice calls and unlimited music streaming.
