goober do you know what node your in by cance??

There is rumor they will be doing the same in the city maybe in the B nodes somewhere.
No, sorry, I don't. It's like a rollercoaster. It's good at times and then bad at others. I understand that some times of the day can be an influence but prior to the upgrade, I had rock-solid 3800-4400 speeds. Now I have issues hitting 1/2 the 6Mbps speeds.

I'm near the 15th St/Sherman Av area, if that helps.

Not meaning to be stupid (although I may be ) not sure about a hub B. Not sure if there is a way for me to check?.

16th & Sherman would be the nearest cross street.

Before the 6Mbps upgrade I had solid 3800-4400 speeds (day or night, time, day of week, etc. did not matter). Since the 6Mbps upgrade it has been inconsistent. It is better than it was. I was getting as low as 1.8Mbps at times. Now it seems to bottom out around 2.8 at the lowest. Still short of 6Mbps and worse than when I was at 4Mbps!

You are in the Hub B (Nodes labled by area).

City of - Hub B
Lynn Haven - Hub A
Calaway - Hub C
PCB - Hub H

Do remember some areas do cross.

Goober if you want someone to check out your speed outside your house I can work it out to have someone form knology look at it (not a service tech, someone form maitenance) you can email me olo131@knology.net with your address and I will respond with the when and wheres.... up to you.

My way of saying thank you for helping with the speed issues...

which is respectable. It just seems that it should be more consistent (it was prior to the upgrade).

Mine has never been as bad as bigdusty's. Did you say they were thinking/still doing maintenance/tweaks over here?

If so, let's wait and see. It's not that I can't hit top speeds, it's just that they seem to fall off at random unpredictable times.

From what I hear the next migration won't happen untill mid October. They are doing parts of each division one at a time starting with the worst first.

My offer still stands and you have my email address.

I will keep up with this post to see what is up....

Well, seems better now, so I guess I'll quiet down for awhile.

Still cooking with gas on the beach.

I need to get a tech out to the house and fix this -20db when I try to watch VOD but other than that things are good for now.

It took them 4 months to fix the beach. Sad part is it only took them 20 minutes to install the hardware.
