I have Verizon FiOS's 25 Down/25 Up service. https://testmy.net/db/pU7c4oCmY&framed=1&framed2=1 https://testmy.net/db/DNQzOextu&framed=1&framed2=1 Needless to say, these results are pretty bad. To be fair though, I'm using wi-fi, and other people were sharing my connection during the tests.

Hey everyone, I'm really sorry for my late response. I was unable to use a computer for the past week for reasons unrelated to Verizon. I don't think that this a result of network congestion. As my TMN results (https://testmy.net/compID/8826561511) indicate, my bandwidth is generally consistent during the evening hours. editorsean, I followed your link and downloaded the Google Chrome installer. As you can see in the image below, I reached a download speed of about 25 Mbps (the dip in bandwidth was caused by traffic from other users on my network, as the Networx graph shows a consistent flow of data). Verizon isn't shaping HTTPS. I will try using a different browser, but I believe that my YouTube issues are the result of throttling by Verizon. Verizon isn't the best ISP when it comes to net neutrality-in fact, I experienced this problem several weeks ago, but was able to watch HD Youtube videos when I connected to a VPN server. I complained to the FCC, but now, the problem has resurfaced. Google's statistics indicate that other Verizon FiOS customers in the area are also facing subpar YouTube performance: In comparison, this is the YouTube performance of the other major ISP, Cablevision:

Oh, Verizon. How I love you, how I hate you:

Thanks; that really cleared things up!

Are the TiP measurements averaged, or is the size of the download divided by the time the test took to complete?

That would make sense, but I performed another upload test and I saturated my uplink almost immediately. The connection seemed pretty stable, too.

I did this test over Ethernet on Verizon's 25/25 plan. My Task Manager reported a consistent upload rate of about 28 Mbps, but my TMN result is about 9 Mbps lower. What's going on?

I'm on Verizon FiOS's 25/25 service in New York.
