Before I was able to get my advertised speed on this site. (23Mbps/5Mbps) but now Im getting only getting this kind of speed (only on this site)



on other speed test site I get this
http://www.speedtest.net
http://www.speedtest.net

When Im downloading a game from Steam I get my full speed of 2.8MB/s and when I speed in torrents I get 700KB/s upload. So I know that my speeds are correct but the test results for testmynet is off by a lot.

Here is my speed test back in Jan 2010

Can you paste me your traceroute? -- make sure your IP isn't shown when you post it.

We're in a different datacenter, starting last month. Same provider but now in their Houston center instead of Dallas.

Here's an update. I contacted my host about the issue and they responded with the following...

Hello,

Our investigation shows no issue within our network. We used your site to test the speeds, and they show to be accurate.

Download:
62765 Kbps or 62.8 Mbps (7662 kB/s)

Upload:
44118 Kbps or 44.1 Mbps (5385 kB/s)

The issue seems to be outside of our network. To determine where the issue is taking place, please provide several trace routes from customer having the issue. Also, please provide a trace route from a customer that is NOT having an issue, so we can determine if they are taking a different route into our network. We will await your response.

Thank you for choosing The Planet!

There still may be a bottleneck in one of the peering connections along your route but I need a traceroute to give to my host so we can hunt the problem down.

FYI: I should have at least two more servers by the end of the year. An addition of an East coast and West coast server will give our users more options in cases like yours. We used to offer mirrors but stopped the practice years ago because it was impossible for me to maintain quality control over donated mirrors. I like my test servers to be dedicated to the tests and nothing else.

As long as the problem is something within my control or my hosts control I'll see to it that it gets resolved. But if it's one of Comcast's hops then there isn't anything I can do.

If you need information on how to run a traceroute see this post >> http://testmy.net/ip...post__p__323151 ---- Thank you for your input, I take things like this very seriously.

I think I have found out why it was off. I removed a switch out of my network and ever since I did that my test speeds are back to normal. I guess the switch was bad or causing additional lag. Thanks for your help

Nice man... you had me all worried

The problem came back. (Test taken at 2:30pm)

The problem could be my router. What Im going to do is remove my router out of the network and just plug myself directly into the modem. This way we can eliminate my local network.
I was getting this as of a result before the problem came back.

Okay, I forwarded the information to my host. Thanks for providing that. I'll update you once I know something.

Update: The Peering Lead for my host is investigating.

There may be a bottleneck in the peering with Comcast. Comcast seems to be a common denominator in this case.

[NaRu]

Thanks Buntz, I've forwarded your info to my host as well...

Here's a quote from their most recent response regarding this

stupid comcast lol

[ragjr2]

I too am having the same problem with my speed tests on testmy.net. I am also a Comcast subscriber.

[NaRu]

Im still having the same problem. It comes and goes for some reason. One day I wont get anything faster then 6Mbps down and up but some days I will get 25Mbps down and 9Mbps up

[Buntz]

No improvement here either.The best I can get is around 7 Mbps download. Upload in good.

Ye , somethings up here as well , 10-15 second hesitation which I know is somewhat intentional to start off , then a 5 second or more in between test sizes , but not always.
