Post your Speedtest.net Speeds!

It's the same in Colorado, I recently upgraded from 500/500 line to 1000/1000.

Not really an official speedtest.. :laugh:

Finally installed a 10Gbps network card in my router and can finally break 1Gbps. Too bad my upload is still trash, thanks Comcast.

Is your connection fiber optic? If yes, what is your ONT/UN model? I'll do research around here. Actually, 1 Gbps is not my limit, but the maximum I can reach.
 
Slowest @work connection I have seen here in a long time, but fast enough to do what I gotta do everyday :)

Sadly that is cable internet for you.

If you want more upload need access to fiber.

Not fiber, fiber isn't available in my area. This is a Comcast cable connection. It's either this or DSL and the max download available on the DSL is 19Mbps. So I guess I shouldn't be complaining too much, since the upload with Comcast is faster than the fastest available download from any competitor. But that just shows how badly we need competition in the ISP market here in the US.

What annoys me is that it doesn't have to be that bad but Comcast are just assholes. If they switched to DOCSIS3.1 on the upstream there would be plenty of bandwidth and they could at least give their 1Gbps+ customers 100Mbps or more upload. But they don't want people hosting crap on their consumer connections, so they leave the upstream using DOCSIS3.0 and massively limit upload speeds.

They could actually offer 100mbps on 3.0 they just don't want to.

One of our Canadian ISP's shaw does fairly certain someone on that ISP has posted on this thread gives 100mbps at 3.0 but on mid split. Comcast is still on low split like most cable isp's hence the 30mbps uploads. It would require them to spend money investing in their infrastructure...

I ran 100/30Mbps on DOCSIS 3.0 a long time ago here before 3.1 was a thing and if you knew how to get it tweaked it was the best and cheapest connection ever I had.

But then companies started to offer 300/60Mbps and eventurely 1000/60 or 100 Mbps on DOCSIS 3.1 and it just went down hill for me so I changed back to fiber.

Could you elaborate, please? What card and process of installation in the router and what router model?

Thanks!
I'm always on the hunt for ways to increase my speed, whether it be my truck, PC, internet, etc.. :rockout:
 
Spectrum went down this morning for about a few hours. It came back up running faster than ever! Uploads still suck, I wish cable wasn't our only real option here.

 
It's not gigabit anymore but I changed over to the fiber company that owns the fiber cables and uses their central but on a 500/500Mbit connect I do not complain at all going through a Nokia Beacon 1 which they provide 2 of.

lol weird I jus got a notification for this thread, I literally just tested out my network speed at work with speedtest. I got a new antenna its USB connected and allows me to place it up higher... went from 30 down to 115 down. not bad. I had a feeling it would help, I'm right on the edge of its range.
 
Just ran Speedtest on my HTPC, still pretty good speed after 2-3 years, I did change ISP a year or so back, speed seem to be about same as previous ISP. At both times, I signed up for a 1Gbps plan so the speed's about right....

on WI/FI 2.4ghz speed
direct modem is typically 280 Mbps download
I bought this 5g router it caps my Ethernet to 100 Mbps not happy because it falsely clamed up tp 300 Mbps 2.4Hz and 867 Mbps 5G

Your result looks similar to what I get with Comcast as well with their gigabit over DOCSIS. It works. I'd like a little more upload, like 100Mbps, but it's plenty fast for what I use it for. I don't use a ton of upload all that often, but when I do, I notice.
 
ignore the ping since my ISP hosts speedtest.net lol.

this costs around 10$ a month for unlimited :peace:



did it to a server mentioned in a test above


does not like long distances though the ping is still acceptable i guess haha

134ms to get all the way to the UK and back to India is pretty damn good to be honest.

i live quite close to where the undersea cables start off from here, so that helps i guess.
 
Figured I'd add my Google Fiber scores as well (Google claims theirs are more accurate as a subscriber of it)
