I've heard of problems of connecting or with speeds in Lebanon before. You're using a dial up connection right? Or at least a very slow speed plan?
You need to be more specific about your modem & or router brand & models.
BTW if the speed test gives you the speed in kbps (kilo bits per second) then you need to divide that figure by 8 to give you KB/s (KiloBytes per second)
