Insight 10mbs service slow at peak times, fast during day.

Recommended Posts

I have Insight 10/1mbs broadband, and get advertised speeds during the day,

but at peak times.. it slows by 75%.

Insight says my connection is fine, after spending the usual 30-mins on the phone with them blaming the router.

Anyone having similar problems? and how did you get them to correct it?

can you post a full tracert to testmy.net??  From what you posted, not sure on the OS, but it looks like there is a router issue just as you get transfered off of Insight's network and onto sprint's in chicago.. Which is a real surprise considering that Chicago is a pretty big hub..

You may not be out of trouble yet.. I was looking at the scheduled maintenance for the next week or so and there is a lot of hardware being replaced in Chicago right now.. I was unable to find anything for your specific router right now... but I am willing to bet that there is additional traffic on it because of the maintenance..

Glad your speeds are back up. Insight seems to have cleared most of out routing proplems in No.Kentucky going through Atlanta Level3.

Pretty much. You can do what I did when they say its out of their control. Ask for a credit. Then they will say "out of our control". I say I pay you, you pay them and I want a credit! I pay you for complete serving its not my problem you are getting screwed. Be firm about it .
