It should be available by clicking the CID: link is at top right of your post here - grayed out, starts with 8723

https://testmy.net/compID/872346028785

You can select the TestMy server by using the link in the very upper right Had part of the home page.

you can read all about why TestMy results are real and slower than Speedtest by reading the info under the Extras pulldown above.

Do some more testing here, and let’s see what your speeds are

Where are you located?

not familiar with Comcast HSI but in the last 100 or so tests by Comcast users here on TestMy, there’s only a couple of Test points above 500 Mbps.

The Twilight Zone. Looking at the speeds documented out there for the same money that I pay makes me feel as though I still run dial-up. (a lot of you never experienced those days).

I live in a rural farm community, no cable and no DSL available. I have to rely on "high speed" wireless from a broadcast tower a mile down the road. Paying for a whopping 5mb down/1mb up at a rate of $59.95/mo. This is embarrassingly slow compared to the rest of humanity! In my area they pretty much have us by the short hairs with no decent alternative. Thinking the area market is ripe for the picking for true high speed internet providers.

That’s the sad truth about internet in America. The ISPs go where the money is and leave rural America with minimal investment.

@Invictus. Your test results show a lot of variation. What speed max are you 

paying for?

What speed is your ISP plan supposed to be?

It probably is could be that to get the really high speeds you need something more powerful, but I couldn't say for sure. I'm a Mac guy and not a PC guy, so I can't help you much there. There are plenty of very skilled PC guys on this site. i'll ask one to look at your post here.
 

OK good, so testing to the Dallas server is the right one.

it sounds like you’re doing all the right things. Keep calling them for help. Be patient even though your frustration will get worse before it gets better. Eventually they’ll assign someone toot that can provide some real help.

Where are you located (city)?

On the Home page there’s an Identifier button just above the Test My Internet button. Set the Identifier to something different for each computer. Then later you can filter results on those Identifiers

This is my result on Speedtest.net. Which is why I'm confused about these results.

 

Result ID: 701792926

I’ve run a few Speedtest.net tests lately and they aren’t reporting what the average speed is over the whole length of the test. It looks like they are running some sort of peak average result taken over the latest set of data they’re averaging. You can look at their speed plots and see that the numerical result they give you don’t include the affects of poor results that happen early in a test. Their results support the ISP and not the user that’s trying to compile data supporting internet speed problems. I would trust the results of TestMy over any of the Speedtest results.

the results of Speedtest only seem to match TestMy’s results when you have no problems (intermittent, large variation etc)

What speed are you supposed to be getting per your ISP plan?

Or... better yet... use a 10G adapter on my Mac Pro...

 

 

What ISP are you on. Those are some screaming speeds

100 Mbps is a really fast upload speed. Are you sure it’s not 10?

Where are you located?

I am in Atlanta. I have had four or five techs out. One had a tester and read 45.  Techs on the phone make adjustments, change channels, and I get 35 to 40.  A day or two later I am back to 14 or lower.  I will check with a line.  But if it is better, I will have to move my laptop tp that room ?

 

Try the Miami Test server and see if you get similar results. And yeah, check with an Ethernet cable.

I am a novice.  Not a novice to poor treatment by ISP's.

I pay for 50 mbps.  The price is around $40.  Occasionally I get 14mbps, but usually I get 10 and under.

Is that anywhere near the speed I should get ?

It looks like you’re averaging about 14 Mbps, and using the Dallas Test server. How far from Dallas are you?

up to 100mbps cost $64.99 not bundled...just internet portion of bill

@bgaffney. Are you rustcrew?

You can read up on Ookla vs TestMy in the Speed Test Legitimacy stuff under the Extras pulldown tab above 

im getting closer Results lately between them when I use the Speedtest app on my iPad, but the only site I trust for reality in TestMy

Soooooooooo, if I pay my ISP provider for 200/20 and I'm getting 200/20 on OOkla and 80/20 on Testme (hard wired) can I argue with my ISP?  I get similar results with multi treading.

My gut feel is that I would be happier tilting with wind mills.

Thanks anyway.

Not sure where you are located. You’re testing to the Dallas Test server. Is that the closest one to you?

They can fix that. Keep after them

That sounds like a tough situation. Be polite but persistent.

Are you testing on a computer via wireless?

where are you located? How far from Dallas Test server?

What is your ISP plan max speed?
