Speed Test
My Results

Hello,
I have a question about my TMN tests results,
My Upload "avg speed" shows: 8.7Mbps and my "max" speed shows: 86.8 Mbps but my connection speed is (or at least should be) : 10Mbps Down & 1Mbps Up, so why is it so that it shows much higher speeds in the test results?
these are my test results: Connection ID 176944719148
and is this normal that the graph shows the speed goes so much up and down, or my connection is very bad/inconsistent?
I know that the ISP (explornet) is the worst ever, but I live in where there is no other options unfortunately,
and last question, is this normal (it is one minute between tests)

Hello Pgoodwin1, thank you for the reply, but the below pictures show what I am not understanding, and about calling them (my ISP Explornet the Only available where I am), there is no luck, I did call them several times, last time I called them they said that they see data speed is going to my modem at the rate between 0.5 to 1Mbps and on their end everything is fine, and when I said that I'm paying $139 for 10Mbps, they said "too bad, the only thing they can do is to lower my plan to 5Mbps so I will pay less.
But that's not the problem even if I would go for 5Mbps I will stil not get that as it drops to near 0Mbps at times.
That is why I'm trying to Understand/figure out what is going on with my connection, it can't be any trees or obstacles to the tower because between ~ 11:30pm and to about 3:pm the connection is usually 7 to 10Mbps but still the variation is pretty bad from minute to minute.
For the speed difference I could blame congestion/oversold tower but why this variation in speed?
One minute is 6Mbps and the next is 244Kbps, of course I test it with TMN because the "fake" Okla speed test shows always higher results, but since I read the whole TMN site, I know now why they show different/higher results.
Btw, I work for a computer shop and now I tell everyone about Testmy.net and to forget about speedtest.net !!!
