| [Speed] Wrigleyville Slow Hi,
Normally I have no problem pulling 20/2 service at full speed, but the past two days I have been lucky to get 2mb down.
Latest RCN Speedtest Result:
Max Download Speed: 4.04Mbps
Max Upload Speed: 109.4Kbps
Encoded Mac:
7c1353bbac4d3a8ee1a4a12181d9fda6fa87c23b
Can you take a peek and see if anything weird is going on in 60613 off my node?
I work from home a couple of days a week and it is actually painfully slow to connect back to work in the bubrs.
Thanks!

| Good to hear it's not just me and others in Chicago have been experiencing issues. I had a complete outage for about an hour this morning (Sunday 2/12).
Any RCN techs who can confirm any issues and/or let us know what's being done to address them? Thanks!

Good to hear it's not just me also (in 60613). Paying for 25 down, and usually it's fine (ish)... but yesterday and today I've been getting crazy slow speeds (1Mbps) at times, and lots of webpage timeouts.
It seems to be fluctuating like crazy... speedtest.net give me 10 down/1 up, then a second later 1.5 down/0.2 up.
This is really frustrating and calling support @rcn last night resulted in accusations of my computer being too old... which has nothing to do with this. Any update on if there's a problem in this area? |

Hey,
I just had 50/6 service installed but il.speedtest.rcn.net is showing speeds that aren't even close! It looks like all my metrics are within spec, so I'm not sure what's up.

I'm supposed to get 25Mbps down/2Mbps up, but am currently getting 10Mbps down/256Kbps up on il.speedtest.rcn.net.
Thanks! |

Rob,
Yea I saw your test but the one before and after were MUCH better. Either-way we noticed that load balancing wasn't working and that was turned on late Sunday. See if things seem better.
e203, your in a an entirely different location (from network perspective) than Rob so no relationship in problems at all.
Pawk, you need a troublecall so I'd contact customer service.
Josh, you looked like you were in the middle of a major noise problem at the time and for a number of hours before you post. That seems to have cleared up now though.
