[Speed] Re: Post your speedtest between 8pm-12am here




Test done at 9:48 P.M. CST

Anyone have any information as to why the service is so bad between 8pm and 12am?

It could be, and probably is an over-utilization issue on the equipment you are drawing your signal from. Basically that means there is too many people on the equipment and not enough bandwidth to go around. Feel free to send us a PM or post your phone number in »Windstream Direct so that we can confirm.

Not to bust on ya too hard, Aaron, because I appreciate what y'all do on this forum, but another way to phrase that same issue would be "oversold".

The way you said it makes it sound to me like too many spoiled brat kids are clamoring for the new brand of candy at the snack bar. To my way of thinking, the candy store should stock the counter and open enough registers to handle the demand before they put out the "for sale" sign.

New speed from TWC all's good so far I guess only time will tell if the speeds hold up. But I'm happy to say Windstream no longer is my provider a 2 year wait and no end in sight was enough for me.

Wow! Windstream admitting that they maybe over sold the equipment! Never thought I would see the day.. How about looking at my area for the same thing Aaron.. Or how about responding the the PMs and messages I have sent you first.....
