OK, so my supernode is passing the tests, but I would still like to figure out why my speed is subpar when it comes to NEM, but awesome when doing regular speed tests.
Does it simply have something to do with peering to the other nodes? Does me using OpenDNS have any effect? Or using ddns.net to hide my IP?
How can ddns hide your ip?
Usually a DNS does exactly the opposite: tells your ip to anyone who asks it.
I simply meant that my node shows up as mynodename.ddns.net instead of "my.ip.adress"

I get 90000 Kbit/s on a regular speed test, but only 7500 Kbit/s on NEM. One time I only got 3600 Kbit/s and failed. I'm guessing there's nothing I can do, but still thought I'd post here and see.
Which node was yours? The speed test in the node rewards program heavily relies on other nodes having a good connection to your node, so the location of your node is important.
Capricorn is my node. And yeah, I guess me being a lonely Scandinavian node up in the hills of northern Sweden affects my speed.
But whatever, I'm grateful for the lowered bandwidth cap so I can still be a node.
