WP7 , Calculating Internet Speed

I am building an application where URL sources will be decided by the speed of the internet connection(Bandwidth). Is there a way that we can ascertain the speed of the internet connection ?

For Example : If the User of my application is using a low speed connection (2G) then i need to provide him with a suitable source. If the user is using a 3G connection then i will provide him with a better quality content through another URL.

So for this i need to ascertain the speed of the internet connection that the user might have. Kindly give me some guidance on this.
