said by bestjsg6:a few more for Toronto server Do you have anything else running at the same time? The DL/UL jumping around like that in such a short period is really strange. There are other reasons that could be happening, but that's the most obvious, the most common and the easiest to scratch off the list |

Direct to modem? |
|
|
those results were behind a good old Linksys wrt-54GL. just tried direct to modem - » speedtest.net/result/226 ··· 1155.pngand now tried back behind the router - » speedtest.net/result/226 ··· 1050.pnglooks like everything looks better/normal now either direct or behind the router, what was going earlier ? on a side note , should I upgrade my router anyways to take advantage of these 18M+ speeds ? |

I'm guessing the router was rebooted between? The wrt54g's are starting to show their age. |
|

no, but I have rebooted my PC , guess that might have helped too..
anyways, thanks for your attention, today is my first day using your service, will watch for the same tomorrow around the same time. |

Hi Rocca, I am experiencing inconsistent download speeds again just now, (as low as 3MB) , I have read somewhere that the D3 modem uses multiple channels so if one channel is congested, it will switch to another to get better performance, does this theory apply here ? |

It uses multiple channels bonded vs switching (ie think a wider stream). If you pm me your account # I can take a look. |
