FiosFiend Posted April 1, 2006 CID Share Posted April 1, 2006 I wish this were true but I know it's not. This is NOT a cached result either. I cleared my cache before running this test. I've gotten this kind of result from the smarttest a couple of times in the last couple of days. I tested with mirranda right after this it correctly clocked my speed at 15Mbps. I'm on the 15/2 fios plan. Is there something going on with the testmy download test? I'm not getting any weird results from the upload test. :::..

It looks fine. But I'm still getting the 25Mpbs result from the main test page. :::..

RTB Posted April 1, 2006 CID Share Posted April 1, 2006 Can you reach stable speeds of > 2MB/s on other downloads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiosFiend Posted April 2, 2006 Author CID Share Posted April 2, 2006 Can you reach stable speeds of > 2MB/s on other downloads? I'd say I'm averaging about 2MBps or less overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTB Posted April 2, 2006 CID Share Posted April 2, 2006 Tough one. If you're on an average of 2 MB/s, it could either be normal or too far above normal. So, either testmy.net's fault or Verizon's. Could you give a more exact maximum, without burst preferably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiosFiend Posted April 3, 2006 Author CID Share Posted April 3, 2006 The max download I've ever achieved is about 1900kB/s. I just tested again with the main testmy download test and got this. :::..
