March 5, 20159 yr Author I'm using "Cable" & my ISP is "Hotwire Communications" Ping: 12ms. Download Speed: 5.84 Mbps Upload Speed: 0.90 Mbps Should i complain or get a different ISP?
March 5, 20159 yr FPCH Admin Upload could be a little better. As far as downloading goes if you're not downloading gigabytes at a time that speed will work just fine. Off Topic Forum - Unlike the Rest
March 5, 20159 yr Hi ! My down load speed isn't good either. My ISP repairman was out here and proved the problem is in my wireless hardware on my lap top. He got almost 50Mbps down load on his lap top. I suppose I could get a toggle and do better, but I'm lazy and cheap! I'm about ready for a new lappy any way!! http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/4191970337 Some times you're the wind shield. Some times you're the bug!!:(
March 6, 20159 yr The download speed is the worst I have ever heard for cable N3, have you checked what speeds they claim to be offering with them and I agree with Bob the upload is really bad also? Are there maybe tiers of speed that you pay different prices for?
March 6, 20159 yr Author I'll be talking to my ISP soon to find out more information. Can malware affect the speeds?
