You never will, well, at least not on a consistent basis.
There's too many variables (equipment on your end, servers on their end etc), that determine the speed.
I was about to argue the same. I don't know if I've ever met anyone who is getting the speed advertised to them. However, there are so many variables that can impact those speeds, and sometimes it is simply out of the ISPs hands. Within the space of an hour, my speed can go from 40mbps to 130mbps.
However, I do think there is an issue with advertising those speeds and being realistic. My family probably were told we'd receive 150mbps. They have since swapped out their regular TV box for an amazon firestick, and watch everything online. They thought 30GBP was too much to pay for just internet and wanted to go cheaper. They looked at 66mbps services, which realistically usually hit around the 10-20mbps mark. With the amount of use in this house, I cannot recommend they go for a cheaper service.
