Re: New to CenturyTel...experiencing slow speeds

As you'll probably find out over time one speed test doesn't mean much. It's a snapshot of a moment in time.

There is more information here that you might find helpful:

Have you done speed tests through that router? Are they more-or-less equal to what you get with your PC hooked directly to the modem?

I did a few speed tests through the router, and the results weren't as good as a direct connection, sometimes as low as ~600kbps. But maybe I should try again...when I did those tests even the direct ethernet connection results were slow. Maybe it just took a while to get up to speed?
