Now, whenever I run speed tests, I get good results. I am on the 15mbps service(with the modem that also gets you the telephone service). Lately, I have been getting 16 to 19mbps speed test results, except that everything slows down every evening from about 6pm to midnight. Actually, the evening slowdown has been there for years now. In the evenings, I may get 9mbps or so.

I have called in multiple times over the years about this, and techs have come out to the house, but they never find anything wrong locally here with my signal levels. Plus, I am told that there are not actually that many houses on the same node, so there is no excuse for this lag and evening slowdowns. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-East-Texas-slow-speeds-high-latency-27556096 Mon, 24 Sep 2012 14:53:43 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-East-Texas-slow-speeds-high-latency-27549432

PingPlotter right now shows a pretty smooth graph, with latency primarily increasing with the number of hops.

To help facilitate troubleshooting, please download and install PingPlotter Pro (free trial). Then perform a Pingplotter trace, 1 second interval, to a server that you're experiencing high latency to and post the image (file > save image) in this thread.

Also, please PM me your cable modem's MAC address and your public IP found here: »whatismyip.com .]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-East-Texas-slow-speeds-high-latency-27543907 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 15:04:58 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/East-Texas-slow-speeds-high-latency-27541520 For the past couple weeks we've seen slow download speeds and higher than usual latency. Until now I attributed it, at least in part, to a router that was going out. Today I hooked up the new router and noticed no improvement.

The results of a couple tests I ran tonight:

When I first moved here, I would get sub 50ms pings to Dallas, and it seems service has been degrading for the past year or so. I would like to upgrade to the 30Mbps tier, but I would like to feel more confident that these issues would not affect the higher tier as well.
