jester24 Posted March 24, 2005 CID Share Posted March 24, 2005 I always test at about 6.2mbit with my 6000/768 Comcast Cable... but tonight... something crazy happened. :::..

I ran it again and I was back to normal. I don't know what happened there. Maybe Comcast was testing for a higher speed and at the exact moment I ran a speed test? Who knows... any ideas?

Ronnie1055 Posted March 24, 2005 CID Share Posted March 24, 2005 jester... There is no telling what Comcast was doing... but it must have been something considering the cap on the 6meg package is 6.8m and you were clearly higher than that. Things that make you go hmmmmmm.

xs1 Posted March 24, 2005 CID Share Posted March 24, 2005 It was tested from "http://www.bafserv.com" , this site most of the time is pretty good, but is known for cached results. May be what happened to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCobra Posted March 24, 2005 CID Share Posted March 24, 2005 I never get accurate results from that site. They are usually lower than what I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
organ_shifter Posted March 24, 2005 CID Share Posted March 24, 2005 Yeah, I got results like that the other day. At first I was trippin' out, but then I chalked it up as being a cached test. Although, I always clear out my temporary internet files and history before testing. I just couldn't come up with any other explanation for it. Looks damn good when the results page comes up! :::..
