It wasn't stable until I replaced my Asus router with a Netgear gigabit switch. I noticed you also use an Asus AC router. Unreliable as hell even wired.

Mine isn't really had it on 600/600mbit fiber no problems and runining Merlin's firmware on it, but I can still peak at about 920Mbps in download with my Asus router but that doesn't make my connection more stable even for the moment I am on my ISP's Sagecom F@st 3890 router have the same problem with unsable speeds.

This is the "White Spaceship": http://www.multichannel.com/news/distribution/broadcom-chip-powers-sagemcom-s-first-d31-modem/403604
 
The problem isn't your router its your ISP.

There is probably too much congestion in your area for it to hit those speeds consistently.
 
It's so aggravating that I live in one of the most developed countries in the world, yet my Internet is dog sh!t. It's a first world problem I know ,but aggravating nonetheless. I live in a state with some of the most prestigious colleges & institutions in the world ,and yet 60 Mb's is my best possible speed.

Thanks charter
 
An interesting Connection here... I am using a local access point system (Directional Wireless Antennas) who's fibre connection terminates about 30 Miles from me then sent wirelessly to the surrounding villages.
Around 300 to 400 people use this service, providing line-of-sight to the transmitter.

My speed fluctuates, never goes lower than this test. My download speed can go up 27mbps at times. The upload can go all the way up to 80mbps. Depending on usage i guess. This costs me £25 per month.

Also have ADSL Line with BT and broadband by Plusnet that provides a huge 1.5mbps... With a following wind of course.

Just got an upgrade from my slow 150/150 Mbits :p to a 600/600 Mbits line :D. Still not the fastes can i see, but since i am the only one that will be using this connection. I think i will be just fine with this.

Dont know about that upload speed, it shut be a bit higher. Maybe its my old motherboards lan card that cant handle higher upload speed. Well for the price i have to pay for this line i dont complain.

@Tomgang u need to use another server then what's on ur local network, bcs you have Youse/TDC as internet provider then u use their server to test with it's like using their internal server as testing.

VPN-Byen.dk on speedtest is on fibernet at stofa, or else I prefer to use Speedtest in Amsterdam.
 
Last December I upgraded from Suddenlink Cable 100/10 cable to AT&T 1000/1000 FIOS . This speedtest was done by the installer on my old desktop that died and I have since had some issues getting these numbers.

They are pretty much saying my old laptop Acer Aspire 5750Z doesn't have the hardware to support these speeds. It does have the Broadcom NetLink (TM) Gigabit Ethernet. But they(AT&T) claim on their self help webpage that I need a i5 processor or better and 8 gigs of ram along with 2 GB free disc space to get the speeds. Well my old laptop don't have the chip or the memory. Its funny the guys that came out supposedly to fix it were worried I had to many Wi-Fi devices, too many tabs open at once, a neighbor possibly stealing internet. Oh and how they have yet to find a speedtest site that was accurate to any degree on this FIOS. Pretty much any excuse they could come up with as to why I now get extremely random speeds on my tests.
Here is what they look like off my laptop. I always use auto select for the host it uses.


Not sure if this link works but this is my test history. http://www.speedtest.net/results
 
Hmmm seems funny how you can upload at high speeds but the download fails to get similar speeds are these wireless or wired connection tests

Thats server dependent.

Issues could be from the CO to the fiber cabinet, or fiber cabinet to the pedastal/terminal, from the terminal to your GPON, or between GPON and modem...

If anything is damaged or worn out it will show differently, now guaranteed speeds are through ethernet though.

Trying to learn here:
What are you saying is server dependent?

I don't know what a CO to the fiber cabinet,or fiber cabinet to the pedastal/terminal, or what a GPON is?

I can tell you the entire system from AT&T is new here. The installers / techs just got schooling on FIOS a few months ago. I live in a hick town and there is no telling whats going on. They were all over the place with their process of eliminating the problem all of which seemed to point at me.
This is all I have on the modem.
Current Wi-Fi devices and their state when running test:
1 tablet - disabled
2 smartphones - enabled but only in idle state (no downloading)
1 laptop - disabled
1 game box solely used for Netflix - disabled
1 ROKU box - disabled
And 1 hardwired laptop I am using.
Same screwy results

I was giving the topology of the system atleast when I worked for yhem.

There could be a profiling issue or channel interference on the modem. Make sure they gave you a brand new modem and not some refurb unit, because the do that to save on operational costs.

It's not limiting somewhere on the route to your laptop at all is it?

Its hardwired with the CAT 5E cable that I am pretty sure came with the Modem? see response below

@eidairaman1 Honestly they brought the modem from their truck but it all appears brand new. Still has the plastic on the front and the cable was still tied as if it just came from the box. I guess they could have pulled it from elsewhere... I never actually saw the box.
 
Is there any limits with the hardware on the laptop? I'm guessing not with the upload speed... Have you tried uninstalling the device and reinstalling it?
 
As of today I have 1 gig fiber :) $79 a month here in Indianapolis, cheers mates! I love this whole 2ms latency thing lol

1Gbps drool, I have 75mbps and that's at the upper end of domestic internet connections here in the UK, the upper most being 200mbps, a lot of people are still stuck on copper ADSL connections with 3-12mbps download and a pitiful 1mbps upload...... :respect:
 
 


went for the fastest i could get (500/500), as work pays for the line.
Do have to pay some tax for the privilege, at the time of writing it gets to about 7,70 us dollars a moth.
the actual price for the line is 77,50 usd/ month, for some reason its much more than a 350/350 line at 28 usd
 
WOW now that's what you call a connection
 
Paying $75/month for 400 mbps. Can't get 1 gbps internet here in DTLA. I guess my building is too old for it :(
