| Speed low from 7-12 Hey guys I've been using embarq for more than a year now never had such problems 3 days ago I started pinging high on game servers (cod4) the same thing happened the day after. So I thought I might have a virus/spyware on my computer using my bandwidth I decided to format my computer and reinstall windows but seems like it didn't work and the problem is with the isp. I ran a speed test and it came out to 2.01 mbps I've subscribed to 3.0mbps and never before have I fallen below 2.9-8mbps in speed tests. I ran the test again during 12:15 am and my speed was 2.9 mbps.
I'm not on wireless and its definitely the isp. When I chatted with a tech support online she said 2.01 is in the range and seems normal????? I know its not and the speed tests show its not either.
What should I do?
usually I ping 79-81 on chi servers now my ping fluctuates from 80-140 it keeps jumping up and down.
Please help. |

We had major troubles Friday as well. I believe maybe the routing has changed because my latency has been much higher and speeds lower. From what I can understand it's still a work in progress with the initial fail so hopefully it'll be resolved back to the normal soon |
