MauriceH 0 Report post · CID: 992072941962 · Posted March 7, 2017 I just switched to Telus Optik (VDSL) 50 plan. They Claim 50Mbps download speed IF I go to http://beta.speedtest.net/ (Ookla) I get 60Mbps down, 11.55 Up, ad ping of 6ms!! Great! On https://fast.com/ (Netflix) I get 58Mbps down!! Also pretty awesome. Here I only get 18.8 Mbps.. Uh oh! Using Dallas for my server site. Am I doing something wrong, or are they traffic shaping like mad, or something else? Also, if I use Multithreading, using these sites: Central US - Colorado Springs, CO, USA => co.testmy.net West Coast US - San Francisco, CA, USA => sf.testmy.net Los Angeles, CA => lax.testmy.net I get Download :: 36.2 Mbps 4.5 MB/s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pgoodwin1 211 Report post · CID: 2220177208099 · Posted March 7, 2017 Not sure where you are in Canada, or what your closest TestMY server is. If you go go to the TestMy home page under the Extras link near top. https://testmy.net/legit-speed-test.php, you can read all the tabs about why the OOKLA test results aren't worth anything to anyone except ISPs. Testing on TestMy will identify problems and help you investigate the problem(s). Your test results are all over the place. If if you can plug directly into an Ethernet port on your modem and do tests here, you can see if your wireless router is a contributor to the issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
