I'm not connected via AT&T, but perhaps this information will also be useful.
I'm currently in Oregon on a Spectrum (formerly Charter) connection (I'll send the IP address via DM). The service is 300/12.
I used speedtest.sonic.net for two tests for each of the following conditions:
The last test really was just to see whether the routing would make any difference. I did get a browser warning that I might be going to an insecure site, but I chose to proceed. As expected, that test had the worst speed.
Oddly, upload speed was only significantly affected when I piggybacked the VPNs . Without VPN or with just one VPN, the upload speed was close to 11 Mpbs. The dual VPN connection did affect the speed.
I also included in the DM traceroutes to ovpn.sonic.net with no VPN, and to speedtest.sonic.net under the various connections (except piggybacking).
Also intriguing is the fact that speedtest.sonic.net knew I was using a Spectrum connection even when on VPN, except when I used both. Yet, whatismyip.com properly shows the proper external IP address when accessed while on a VPN.
