It really does makes a difference. IP transport speeds can be very different than your home network speeds. With a fast/solid /reliable home network and good quality clients there should be little to no difference running a Internet speed test anywhere in your home . But that is network dependent, not isp dependent.
There are lots of pieces to get setup correctly for good network performance. The service provider is only one piece. You'll need a quality modem, router and access point(s) to maximize network performance. The stuff you lease from the service provider is entry level at best.
