[Internet] Slow Download Speeds

Hey everyone,

I recently upgraded from Bell Internet Essential Plus which is 2 Mbps to Bell Internet Performance which is 7 Mbps.

Now for some reason, my download speed is still capped at 120kb/s.

The only reason for my upgrade was to be able to download faster, and now I'm not able to.

I ran a speed test at speedtest.net and here are the results.



Should I call bell and find out why I'm capped at 120kb/s or see if I can figure it out myself?

Post your line stats. If you are using the 2wire modem, your line stats are available here: »192.168.2.1/xslt?PAGE=J45
This will tell you what speed you're capped at, what your line can support, etc.
Find these values and post them here:

twdsm.attenuation_ds
twdsm.attenuation_us
twdsm.margin_ds
twdsm.margin_us

twld.ds_capped_rate

Only thing that shows up is Connection, Connection information, System Summary.

System Type: SpeedStream 4200-Series

Don't know if that will help any.

They probably didn't bump your profile up yet.

Or they sold you something you can't get in your area.

Its one or the other.

make a post in the direct forum (»Bell Canada Direct) or put yourself through Bell-hell by calling 310-surf.

At 120KB/sec, he was never on a 2mbps profile (i dont even know if Bell actually has one, I never seen evidence of it, or do they just slap on 2496 one).

120KB/sec is 1184 profile.

I'm on 17xx/384. That's perhaps the one he is on?

Though I doubt that because of the 32ms ping.

It's UP TO 7mbps. You pay them for the 7mbps but you actually get seemingly 1 mbit.
