Any time I have problem with the service, be it regular disconnects or lousy performance- I pick up the phone, and a few minutes later someone is checking into signal to noise ratios and such. My parents were some of the first people to get MediaOne service back around '98-'99, and every time they had problems, we picked up the phone, and it was taken care of. If you're not happy with your service, CALL THEM.

I get Apple's software updates at maximum line speed, for example. Stop holding them up as some pure, holy source of internet traffic that magically flows through every router at maximum speed. "Speed tester" services compete for bandwidth just like everyone else. And some sites I can FTP from at 2MB/sec. It's unreliable, not guaranteed, never has been, and YOU ALL KNOW THIS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER.

Sometimes it's a virus outbreak, a new movie trailer, or a big news story. Guess what, guys? Sometimes traffic peaks for strange reasons.

  • Local loop, backbone, and uplink utilization.
  • There's also a particular cablemodem (has a big blue "sleep" button on top) that has serious problems with high packet rates and connections (ie, BitTorrent crashes it.) Comcast has switched signals several times and in two cases, it caused horrendous performance. Thats why I think most dsl ads are so misleading. So even if it isnt the rush hour here, it will be elsewhere. The thing is that you can get speed tests from eith side of the country or even planet.

    The only thing that kills the dsl is how far away you are from the office. Its somewhat insignificant how 'slow' it is. Of course during that time of the day there are many people on the internet, so it won't matter what you are using. The one thing that happens is that everyone gets off of there rides, and they all take the train out. It definitely is not a shared ride into the station. However, its not that significant.ĭsl is like taking your car or a cab to the station. I look at the difference between cable and dsl as 2 different ways of getting to a train-station.Ĭable might be like taking a bus to the station. Since cable bandwidth is shared, wouldn't the time of the test matter? I've noted (very unscientifically) that my Internet seems slower between roughly 7-9pm (on Charter in Los Angeles area). The Comcast guy who reconnected the lines told him that they are boosting the line speed to 20 Mbps down / 2 Mbps up in certain areas to be more competitive with Verizon FiOS. Update: 07/10 12:07 GMT by KD: A friend in Massachusetts had a tree fall on his house. This wouldn't explain the results JimDaGeek got of almost 19 Mbps down.

    Is Comcast giving priority to popular speed-test sites?" From Comcast's site, in the Philadelphia area they seem to offer download speeds of 6 or 8 Mbps, with an option for a "PowerBoost" to 12 Mbps on large files. What is going on? I know my father is not paying for a 10+ Mbps connection. Here are the reported download speeds in Kbps: New York, 18,946 Washington, 15,821 Atlanta, 11,257 Chicago, 10,042 San Francisco, 4,230. So now that I am up in the Philadelphia PA area visiting my parents, I decided to test out the speed and reliability using the Speakeasy speed test. In contrast I have heard bad things about Comcast. JimDaGeek writes "I recently moved to Columbia, SC where I have Time Warner as my cable ISP and pay for an 8 Mbps connection and have been very happy with the service, speed, and reliability.
