It's hardly fair to complain about losing fluff and only getting 16mb instead of the 15 you are paying for, no? If you aren't complaining, this didn't belong in a thread about slow upload speeds.
My reply was in response to the RWIN value needing to be one million which is not true.

I've done many installs with Vista, XP, and now six Win7 installs.
Those operating systems have no problem hitting FIOS speeds. No modifications are needed.

No it's not. I have the 25/15 package but you'd never guess that from the results above.

Same machine:



Both of these results are from a brand new, untweaked Windows 7 Home Premium install.

People who claim that this or the other speedtest is the only one anyone should use are doing folks a disservice. Not all speed tests are created equal and no single one test/server will work for everyone.

That's why I really recommend "real world" tests that tend to give more solid results.

3rd - have you tried another computer? There is a chance it is a setting in your pc. I had a repair the other day where it was the customer's pc. when I plugged my laptop into their router it produced had great speeds.

I hope this helps..... if nothing pans out on your end there is always that long phone call to VZ and have them rebuild the circuit on their end.....sometimes that's needed although not very often

I can't write a strong enough note about the quality of the VZ technical service we got on this issue. On the call to VZ they asked for a reboot to get to a known state, then they asked for a couple of different test from a couple of different PCs, then a bypass of the Actiontec (used my portable PC for this as it is set up for hotel rooms that do not have network security) demonstrated the ONT data rate was fine. New Actiontec box arrived a couple days later with a return slip for the errant box. All told, perhaps an hour on the phone running up and down 2 flights of stairs, quality requests from the tech, and back up and running solid in a couple of days.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-northeast-Slow-upload-with-2515-package-23229025 Fri, 23 Oct 2009 08:47:22 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-northeast-Slow-upload-with-2515-package-23227877 said by aaronwt:

The installer saw this and was surprised: he said he had the same 25/15 at home, connected to the same CO, and at speakeasy/NYC he was getting 25Mbps up... yes, that's when he showed me the manifest which showed we were really provisioned for 25/25.

I wasn't too worried at that point and figured I'd uhh, "analyze" things more before complaining... plus I have a phobia about talking to Verizon reps of any kind: my face turns red and I always seem to have to tell myself not to shout. :) Over the first 2 weeks I saw the same poor upload speed and even worse to the West coast where it was 1Mbps. Last week I tried again and suddenly I was getting 25Mbps up to speakeasy/NYC and to most close speedtest.net sites; even more distant sites I was seeing 15Mbps and West coast ~10Mbps.

The only thing I can think is that Verizon has so many routers that at any given time they have a few that are under-performing or glitching; either that or they are playing games with the "traffic shaping"... possibly some crude method of throttling a 25/25 "circuit" to 25/15??
