Re: How can downloads be slow on fiber?

Not all websites are created equal.

I tried frys and it took 15 seconds before the page populated and 5 more seconds before the progress bar cleared.
Netflix page loaded in 5 seconds. Newegg loaded in 3 seconds. Qwest.com loaded in 5 seconds.

All you have done is eliminate your slower connection it doesn't make every web site load faster.

When I had comcast they had member pages. When I got my domain and host, I put the exact same files on that and the page loaded 10 times faster.

Your speedtest, traces and Netflix shows there is no problem with the DSL line.

There must be a lot of companies out there having web server issues but I'm glad the problem isn't at my end this time.
