ratchet Posted October 22, 2008 CID Share Posted October 22, 2008 I have a 5MB plan with my cable co. Both here and another site I test slightly over 5 during low traffic periods. Does that just reflect the fact that however my ISP limits the bandwidth, the equipment just isn't that precise? Thank You! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted October 22, 2008 CID Share Posted October 22, 2008 Most (well some) will give extra bandwidth to accommodate for peak times so in off peak times your speed will be over advertised. I have a 10 meg plan and this is what I get off peak. :::..
