Hi all,
This past Saturday I had Comcast "Blast!" internet installed in my apartment (Supposed to be 20Mbps download, 30Mbps with PowerBoost). The technician brought a Comcast modem and had it all setup, and I tested the speed a couple times over a few days and consistently got 29-31 Mbps results at testmy.net
However, that modem completely died, and I had to go out and buy a new one (their modem simply wouldnt power on for me at all anymore). I bought a Motorola Surfboard SBG6580 and hooked everything up, had the connected setup etc. However, when I tested my connection at testmy.net, I had results varying from 6-11 Mbps download speed.
Other speed test sites like speedtest.net or speakeasy are giving me results of >30Mbps with the new modem though. Only testmy.net is giving me different values for this new modem.
I am concerned that the new modem may actually be limiting my connection speed in a way that the other speedtest sites are not recognizing.
What do you guys think? Is there a problem with my modem? Is my real connection speed up at 30 Mbps or is it low around 6-11 Mbps like testmy.net says?
Thanks!
