Is connection benchmark still busted?

It's not busted but it does use a different speed test provider/servers so depending on your location and route to those servers the speeds may differ but it doesn't mean those are the speeds you're getting, so if speedtest.net shows more accurately then you can go with that

If it's a pure modem then it's not routing anything so speeds would be roughly 50Mbps higher. Other than that they are very likely testing your speed to one of their servers which would be closer and better routed so it would always appear to be higher but connecting to anywhere else will always take longer so that is why it would differ. If your speedtest.net speeds are consistently at the same kind of values I would use those so QoS can be more accurate.
