Well I updated my Sprint CM and the firmware this morning. I seems not to make a difference. I was hopeing it would make some sort of a difference.



Then I changed the HA to an Atlanta and got these. It seems that no matter what HA I put in I always come to the same test site in Kansas City Mo. Now we all know that this last test is bull&*(^.


I do belive that Sprint is either got a real problem or there capping speeds. I intend to try tech support one more time. I its the same thing then I will look for another ISP.

Re: How's your speed for May?



Speed tests are only for that exact moment in time and as evidenced by back to back tests on 3 different servers in Kansas, Los Angles and Greensboro the only real difference is the ping because of the distances. I don't see any problem with Sprint on the Kansas City server.

I guess you could call this "slow" from my normal speeds but i don't notice it by just surfing the net. Just got done doing a 3hour skype video call and didn't have any problems. I think Sprint has QoS working great here.

Re: How's your speed for May?

Maybe you should try a different server. Overland Park, Kansas doesn't act right for me. See the difference with Kansas City?
