Then why can ISPs in places like Sweden and South Korea offer thier customers 100/100 lines for only double what I'm paying for 5/1? Networks aren't expensive, the ISPs want you to think that way.
Knowing you were using a wireless mouse could have caused you to alter the results to meet the outcome you expected. See here. Your anecdotal evidence is not valid.
