[Northeast] Upgraded to 35/35. Speed has not changed. Help?Hi all,
I recently upgraded to the 35/35 internet and my speeds have not increased beyond the 25/25 I have always had.
Over the weekend, we reset the ONT (Version ONT 1000G), and the modem with no luck.
I do have a new modem on it's way out to me, but it seems to be working fine. Is it possible the modem can not handle the new speeds? |

Did you get an order conformation? |

How are you connected? wired or wireless?
Wireless G maxes out about 22-25mbs |

I am hard connected into the router. I got a confirmation on the service. I also just tested wireless (same computer as hard connected). 20.62 down / 16.14 up » www.speedtest.net/result ··· 2600.png |

Go here » www.speedguide.net/downl ··· ads.php/ and run the tcp optimizer. When running move the slider to your speed plan, select your NIC in the list or choose to update all the NIC's and then choose optimize n lower right. Select apply, restart and that should take care of it. I had to do this on my system and aferwards my speeds are what they should be. |

Thanks for the link but no luck. See Speedtest below after optimization: » www.speedtest.net/result ··· 1685.png |

Make sure you test with any anit-virus software turned of or other firewalls. The speeds are below the 25/25 so that would suggest its your PC, if you can also try another computer to test |
|

Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.
I turned off AVG and disabled all firewalls before running the test.
Could it be something with my ONT or maybe Verizon is correct in sending out a new modem?
It's weird because I switched computers and tested two different machines hardwired into the modem and got the same speeds.
The new modem is supposed to arrive this evening so I guess I'll swap that in and see what happens.
My only worry is what if that does not improve things, where do we look next? |

I tried running that test this weekend.
When I run it, the test hangs at "Checking Connection" and never moves past that portion.
I am running it on Chrome.
I waited almost 10 minutes for it to progress and nothing beyond the initial "Checking Commection" portion ever occured.
Java is also installed and there are no issues with that.
The Speedtest site works fine though, no issues with it's operation on the machine as far as hanging up or not running. |

Can you try it in IE? |
|
|
I will give that a shot when I get home this evening. |

This is the current test for Verizon » speedtest.verizon.com/fios300/ |

Question for OP - what Windows OS are you running on your desktop PC or laptop over ethernet port (is it set to "auto", duplex or half, etc. - try changing/cycling your choices and re-test it)
We run different hardware in our house (XP Pro/SP3, Vista, Win 7, and, yes, even Windows 2000 SP4 in a dual-boot machine that I used for various test, repairs & diagnostic work for others) - Windows XP tend to yield the "highest" speed results on VZ's test sites as well as speedtest.net whereas Win 7 tend to showed lowest speed & sometimes seemed inconsistent over Gibabit and 10/100 ethernet connection. You might want to run your benchmark speed testing in a different configuration for possible differences - or, borrow a neighbhor or friend's PC to do it.
Each time you run the VZ Fios speedtest, there is a detailed report, which you can click to show all the specifics, lots of info contained are too technical for the average users, but it might give us some clue - can you cut-n-paste it here, perhaps we can help a little more (just block/omit your i.p. information for obvious reasons)
Your wireless results do suggested that your connection is likely doing/capable of as much as 40 down and 35 up, and, if there are other inbound or outbound data traffic, it could help explain why you are not getting full download test results - i.e. STB/DVR boxes running, smartphones or ipads/iphones or tablets running, etc. |

1. make sure you are hardwired 2. test at » speedtest.verizon.net3. Press the link that says analysis or view your results here. 4. cut and paste those results here to this chat. |

I swapped out the modem with the replacement Verizon sent.
Looks like all is normal now?

Excellent, looked like between your new AT router and ethernet port change from half-duplex to full-duplex yielded best overall results for your 35/35 speed, with extra "padding" or cushion on both d/l and u/l.
To squeeze everything out of it, power down the PC & router, then, restart that new router - give it 3 to 5 minutes to fully reboot, settled down & sync. with all the STB devices first, then, power on the PC with the hardwired ethernet connection - and you should be good to go. Re-check your speed results with the VZ test sites.
Enjoy ! |
