Has anyone else been experiencing speed issues in the Cedar Cove area? In January, my average download speed was 3673.1MB and so far in February it is 2409MB. (I do nightly speed tests at Spreakeasy.net). I've had issues since I signed up for the 6MB service and have kept records for the past three years. While I was doing well last summer, my speeds have been steadily declining since August (see below).

August: 5677.3MB
September: 5384.1MB
October: 4678.2MB
November: 4912.2MB
December: 4569.2MB
January: 3673.1MB
February 2409.5MB (thru 22nd)

Before I contact Leo, I just wanted to know if anyone else was having issues. I'll never call trouble desk, they just want to replace lines, I've had my lines replaced three times already and it never fixed anything...it was an overloaded node.

What time?
I just got 5924, but it is 0020. I honestly think we still have load problems. There's quite a few people back here in Cedar Cove.

I do most speed checks between 2000 & 2300. Tonight was 2435MB at 2115. There has been persistent problems in this area for the past few years.

I noticed a slowdown last night (Tuesday). I was only getting around 900-1200 kbps down around 8:00 PM Then this morning it was back up around 5900 kbps down. I'm about two miles from Cedar Cove (Greenbrier).

It looks like service went out sometime this morning and is still out.

Your modem is online.

You have no CPE device behind it though.

Possibly lose power or something?

I just got home from work. Reset power to modem and it's working but download is only 2707 kbps.

I'm in Cedar Cove. Daytime speeds and late night speeds are fine, but do see a dropoff between 7PM and 11PM (when more people are on the node).
