<description><![CDATA[negativeduck posted : I know that's why I'm curious to get some peeps out with a laptop that I know works and stuff.  No hokum, Honestly it's one of those we've seen virus's worms bad computers and stuff cause slow downs on devices, you know the typical things you've already had repeated to you.  But in *none* of those cases was traffic limited to a flat 10mbps that's what's weird here it's like something in the house is throttling you down to a 10meg ethernet and for the life of me I can't think of what it is.   That's why I'm wanting to try and get someone out there.<br><br>The two that I'm thinking are pretty good guys, I'll go ahead and reach out to them and odds are they will try to get back in touch with you work out date/time.<br><small>--<br>Bryan Laird<br>RCN Engineering</small>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[gsilva posted : From those tests, when you initiate a download, it looks like it hits the 50Mb/s and greater. I don't understand how when I try anything on this side, it doesn't get higher than 10Mb/s. I did have someone come out already...is this other person you are thinking of sending going to run the same tests or have the ability to do something else? At this point I'm wondering if I shouldn't cut my losses and just downgrade back to DOCSIS 2.0 and the 25Mbps service and hope for the best. It just seems like that's giving up and a failure on RCN's part. I signed up for 50 as a test to see how it performed with the idea of going to 75 once it was successful. I telecommute to work and the higher the speed the better. I just want to get the speed I subscribed to, so I can pay the money I agreed to pay. I do appreciate your help greatly and whatever you suggest we do next, I'm willing.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[negativeduck posted : So bit of an issue here short of sending someone to your house with one of our laptops I'm not finding anything.  Actually I told your "modem" to do some FTP tests and it maxed out every time.<br><br>Yesterday:<br>[att=1]<br><br>Today I see that you've had a 10mbps download running since about midnight I figured Hey let me stack my test ontop of yours.<br>[att=2]<br><br>And Two more samples, first one is since the other day you can see the "spikes" where I had your modem download a 2gig file.<br><br>The second is when I just stacked it ontop of your existing transfer this morning.<br>[att=3]<br>[att=4]<br><br>So yea, ontop of the results that I got back from someone testing off your grouping I'm kinda stuck.  I can see about sending someone out there next week with one of our laptops to see what happens.  maybe they do better maybe they don't?<br><small>--<br>Bryan Laird<br>RCN Engineering</small><div class="borderless"><TABLE WIDTH=95% align=center border=0 CELLPADDING=4"><TR><TD ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF nwrap COLSPAN=3 WIDTH=100%><A HREF="/speak/slideshow/27774466?c=2055323&ret=L2ZvcnVtL3IyNzc3NDQ2Ni54bWw%3D"><IMG class="apic" BORDER=0 TITLE="21209 bytes" WIDTH=600 HEIGHT=143 SRC="/r0/download/2055323.thumb600~ea6822071ebfbfb998ca8580e0ce6776/Screen Shot 2012-11-29 at 2.37.57 PM.png/thumb.jpg" ALT="Click for full size"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF nwrap COLSPAN=3 WIDTH=100%><A HREF="/speak/slideshow/27774466?c=2055324&ret=L2ZvcnVtL3IyNzc3NDQ2Ni54bWw%3D"><IMG class="apic" BORDER=0 TITLE="21719 bytes" WIDTH=600 HEIGHT=143 SRC="/r0/download/2055324.thumb600~64b1237b865044bd1584446643b34036/Screen Shot 2012-11-30 at 8.08.16 AM.png/thumb.jpg" ALT="Click for full size"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF nwrap COLSPAN=3 WIDTH=100%><A HREF="/speak/slideshow/27774466?c=2055325&ret=L2ZvcnVtL3IyNzc3NDQ2Ni54bWw%3D"><IMG class="apic" BORDER=0 TITLE="10739 bytes" WIDTH=600 HEIGHT=257 SRC="/r0/download/2055325.thumb600~106021e4e8b4467f213322dea8fc200e/dsilva_Tbl.png/thumb.jpg" ALT="Click for full size"></A></TD></TR><TR><TD ALIGN=CENTER VALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=#FFFFFF nwrap COLSPAN=3 WIDTH=100%><A HREF="/speak/slideshow/27774466?c=2055326&ret=L2ZvcnVtL3IyNzc3NDQ2Ni54bWw%3D"><IMG class="apic" BORDER=0 TITLE="10372 bytes" WIDTH=600 HEIGHT=257 SRC="/r0/download/2055326.thumb600~cbc60e1cd9913e3ea9868c4100076dce/dsilvarecent_Tbl.png/thumb.jpg" ALT="Click for full size"></A></TD></TABLE></div>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[gsilva posted : I'm willing to test and try whatever you think might help. Someone did come out and leave a note that I should be "good for 15/5" down, obviously I have the 50 service or this wouldn't be an issue. Let me know what to do next. I want to point out that I have removed the router long ago from my configuration, and I've tested it with multiple computers. Same issue.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[negativeduck posted : So Just following up I mean to get back to you yesterday but ran out of time to get over to the boards.  So at this point I've got nothing honestly.  I haven't been able to find anything here causing your speed issues it looks like something is killing your connection.  Be that computer router if you have one or something.  Your getting poor speeds even at our slowest hours of the day in the morning.  Meanwhile I can easily flood your modem at 10mbps and there is no hesitation at all so it's not even sweating.<br><br>I asked one of our local PA guys to go connect a modem to the same group you are on and give it a try.  Needless to say he ran 3 tests and all 3 saturated out his connection.<br><br>Now I haven't given up I've got a few  more things I want to go through so at this point don't think I'm done yet.<br><small>--<br>Bryan Laird<br>RCN Engineering</small>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[anon posted : Hello,<br><br>I had the "Mach20/25" service for years with rock solid performance and decided to upgrade to DOCSIS 3.0 with the 50M/6M service. It was installed at the end of May this year and after the first day, the speeds have been inconsistent. 99 percent of the time I run a speedtest at the pa.speedtest.rcn.net site it comes back as lower than 10. I have had multiple techs come on, modems swapped 2 times, supposed "trouble tickets" entered, and yet the problem still occurs almost 6 months later. I think I have been more than patient with the process and I'm just reaching out for some additional help before I look elsewhere.<br><br>Here is my encoded mac: 82eedec14fbc7c5b58a5bcd8f9ff7bfe2ecef637<br><br>Please advise. Thank you.]]></description>
