You can also check out www.dslreports.com

As to the shared speed for each user, unless you set some bandwidth restrictions, it will vary by the amount of traffic.

If everyone is using the connection at once, each users connection speed will bea little below 1/50th of the actual line speed, minus network traffic.

At times of "light" usage, the lucky users will see nearly the full 6mbps.

Out of all those above, I reccomend the dslreports test, it gave me pretty accurate scores of 976Kbits, 981Kbits and 985Kbits as I have a 1Mbit connection here at home.

All the others were variable.
