[LA] What happened to the new upload speeds? in Cox HSI http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r20306977 en Wed, 20 Aug 2008 20:00:23 EDT Wed, 20 Aug 2008 20:00:23 EDT Re: [LA] What happened to the new upload speeds? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20453399 exocet_cm :

You're testing on servers 300-750 miles away.. why not test locally??? You are introducing too many possible points for lag to rely on those results.

There are no closer servers than Dallas/etc for us folk in Louisiana.

The Dallas servers give me great results from dfw.speakeasy.net. I tried their Atlanta, Georgia server, which usually is crappy for me but got decent results from it (I normally get 20-25 down!)

Last Result:
Download Speed: 10479 kbps (1309.9 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 1615 kbps (201.9 KB/sec transfer rate)

said by CCLA :

Dont see any issues with levels. You're right on the money as far as levels. Got an Engineer working with me on it.

What speedtest server are you running these to and are you getting the same results to different ones ?

Thanks

The same one I use most of the time:

Please send your modem's HFC MAC address to user/Cox Rep "CCLA" via PM. He can make sure you are not experiencing a levels issue or some localized network issue.

*** Official Notice:
Be advised that by sending me or any other Cox Representative your cable modem's HFC MAC address you are giving me permission to access your account in order to gain more information and or to troubleshoot your reported issue. Your cable modem's HFC MAC address and phone number will be used as a secondary means of identification as per Federal Regulations.

Yours in service,

Download speeds are decent but my upload are now almost half of what I was getting before.

Not bad but I just wish Cox would provide consistent speeds they advertise and what I'm supposed to be paying for.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20308278 Wed, 09 Apr 2008 13:17:38 EDT Re: [LA] What happened to the new upload speeds? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20308209 komodo7d : upload speeds good here and usually stay steady...checked from several different sites over this am...all results about the same...had 2 days of half speed uploads on march 26 & 27...fixed itself...

not trying to hijack your thread, but let me not miss an opportunity to ask about download speeds...I keep hoping to see more consistent performance on my 15/1.5 connection but am wondering if this is just the best performance available in my neighborhood...Do you get more consistent download speeds in your area?
