Mark this post as Unhelpful.  -- If only the Verizon CSRs worked this well.  |

How do no-name providers like Mountain Cablevision and Source Cable Ltd. maintain the 1-2 spots on The Fastest Downloads with all anonymous speed tests?

 1 edit | Exactly. The saying that a product should speak for itself is the tried and true testament. Anyone that go would through the trouble of fabricating a review, has a product not worth taking a second look at. |

 gigantePremium join:2000-06-30 Anchorage, AK | You are SO RIGHT!!! I thought it was me. I've had 3 (THREE!) N1 Vision routers overheat and freeze up. They all have the same problem. Of course their RMA process is relatively painless but re-configuration of the router/port forwarding/DMZ is a PITA!!! Unbelieveable. |

 | reply to Mactron Belkin sucks None of their products work. So I can see why they would pay |

It's a bit odd that, unlike most companies in speedtests the #1 and #2 companies have 99% anonymous tests.
May be possible, but it is a large anomaly. Something that could be looked into by the BBR admins. |

 | reply to Geminimind Heard Belkin sucked, bought a "good deal" anyways, router didn't work.... sticking with Linksys |
