I could use some help understanding my test results. I recently signed up for 1 GB service from Mediacom and am using a Google WiFi router. I am getting a really wide range of test results.
When I test internet speed with the Google WiFi utility (runs on my Android phone), I average around 750 Mbps down and 60 Mbps up. This is in line with what I realistically expect from Mediacom.
When I test with Speedtest.net from a browser on my PC, I get 227 Mbps down and 64 Mbps up.
When I test with testmy.net from a browser on the same PC, I get 73.3 Mbps down and 23 Mbps up.
Before I switched to 1GB service, I had 100 MB service. Testmy.net always reported between 100 - 125 Mbps every time I tested. This matched the results from the Google app.
Can any experts chime in and explain the wide range in results?
