150/65
Sadly, it looks like most of the speedtest sites cant handle the upload speeds. Almost every one gets over 150 down but this is the only one to break 50 up.
EDIT: Here is the one from Verizon's speedtest site.

| I'll post this again.
The Ookla client that speedtest.net uses cannot handle the high upload speeds on FiOS. Verizon is using a newer Ookla client that can correctly measure the high uploads on the new Quantum tiers. Ookla knows they need to get this newer client out to the speedtest.net hosting providers..... |

I don't get whats with all the advertized/actual's for.
Not everyone sees those numbers even when bundled.
Just like two posts above me, I get those exact same speeds 24/7. Never 75up like 2-3other people are seeing. Still no response as too why only a few are seeing a higher number. |

kudos:1 | fluff is a term used for provisioned bandwidth greater than the listed data rates for the tier.
For example, on the 50/25 , we are actually getting 58/38 , the extra speed is provisioned to allow VOD to not impact internet speed. |

Merrick, NY | Very interesting and educational, when I had 50/20 I wasn't in a bundle, I had all three services but because the speed wasn't offered in a package I didn't have the Triple Play, I wasn't bundle so the speed never reached 50Mbps, it always was 48. Now since the new Triple Play , until I get the 150/65 everything is 78Mbps. Thanks a lot for the information. |

15/5 Speed Test |
Decided to try for a while the 15/5 tier and save 10 bucks a month, its speed tests out at 25/5 with Video fluff. |
