Crazy Naru Posted May 5, 2006 CID Share Posted May 5, 2006 The download is fine but the upload is a little slow...DSL should be very close to the speeds that they advertise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like that happen to me once....I had a 9Mbps connection for uhm about 30 mins then it went back to 5.4Mbps...thats a tease and I want it again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajb62787 Posted May 5, 2006 Author CID Share Posted May 5, 2006 Yep I know how that feels but try going online between the hours of 3 am and 7 am of any day especially Saturday and Sunday mornings and u can see your speeds close to 6.5Mbps but promise something DON'T STEAL ALL THE DAMN BANDWIDTH !!! Had cases here in Maryland my co-worker lives in Columbia ; one of the neighborhoods receiving fiber now and 1/2 is Fiber and the other 1/2 is still Cable DSL and Dial-Up and he happens to notice that Verizon have been stealing all the bandwidth from Comcast for their fiber and he is with Comcast and he said that he must get on the internet between the hours of 11pm to 7am to get a good connection from Comcast . Because what I think it is is that its interference with the bandwidth from Verizon and the bandwidth from Comcast and being Fiber is stronger in connection than cable , Verizon has been winning in that neighborhood . AND ITS BEEN THIS WAY FOR 6 WEEKS !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gotmilk Posted May 5, 2006 CID Share Posted May 5, 2006 Ajb, I think your scores are just fine. I don't think you will get any better on either the download or the upload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Naru Posted May 5, 2006 CID Share Posted May 5, 2006 Ajb, I think your scores are just fine. I don't think you will get any better on either the download or the upload. Most likely but I would at least call them up to see...DSL is supose to be really close to the advertisment speeds. Well it doesn't really matter anyways because thats pretty good DSL speeds..

ajb62787 Posted May 9, 2006 Author CID Share Posted May 9, 2006 It could also be distance from the nearest CO that the lines run on. I betcha if I lived just across the street or next door to the CO , it will be at 3Mbps or higher 99.9% of the time ( the other .1 is in case for verizon service upgrades) but I live 1/2 mile from the nearest CO and I get speeds on http://infospeed.verizon.net most of the time 2.9Mbps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

resopalrabotnick Posted May 9, 2006 CID Share Posted May 9, 2006 they prolly have you capped at 3000000 bps. thats why you are getting the score you're getting. right on target i'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajb62787 Posted May 10, 2006 Author CID Share Posted May 10, 2006 Yes I have capped over 3Mbps several times most late at night. Highest was around a 3.6Mbps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The test results I receive from testmy and DSL reports are far more accurate than that test site. TheHalf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlewis23 Posted May 10, 2006 CID Share Posted May 10, 2006 Well how can I explain how I get scores at 3am-6am of at least 3.2Mbps its kinda weired why you in the morning you get faster speeds. normally DSL is not like that, only cable is.
