| Speed drop lately Hi:
I'm on TurboDSL in Buckhorn, my line is close to edge of service, was first provisioned at 5M but was turned back to 3M because of losing the signal. I used to get around 2M speed regularly, often as high as 2.4M. Lately I have been getting at best 6 to 700K down and about the same up.
Has there been a service change in this area or something? Speed is pretty poor especially given what I'm paying.
Thanks. |

| line quality test I did a line quality test and it fails, this is part of what I got back.

fail
your first hop ping
stream of 40byte pings to 66.79.230.138 0% loss 27.8ms You are 47ms
to your first hop

I did this test on Feb. 7th when my speed was at 1.8M and everything passed. So I'm assuming this means there are problems on my line? |

Re: Speed drop lately OK, well, that's about all I need to know. Posted on the 18th, no reply by the 25th. Be looking elsewhere for an ISP. |

Hi there...
Sorry to hear you're having problems - is this speed consistent througout the day or only in the evenings? What kind of modem are you using?
Normally much faster to respond but there's only two of us that frequent these forums and both been tied up in projects.. sorry about that...;)
Drop a line here and we'd be happy to help out...
Thanks!

Thanks for responding.
It's a Dlink DSL-300G, one of your modems. The speed is like this pretty much all the time. I ran the line quality test again the other day and got the same results, failed in the two middle tests. I ran the speedtest.net test again just before the line quality test and I was getting 1.4 Mb/s, 120 ping, a little better but still feels very slow compared to what it used to be. |
