Re: [Connectivity] Super slow downloads, uploads fineI get how bad upload would mess up the download, but how would 11mbps of upload mess up the download? We're literally getting more than triple the upload. It's a bit messed up. |

They're coming out tomorrow to take a look at it. The guy offered to put me on the $4 monthly wiring protection thing, and he said I could cancel after two months. So even if it is our [landlord's] problem, we pay $8. If it's their problem, we still pay $8. Not a bad deal. They must assume most people forget or just leave it on.
I'm 95% sure it's a Comcast problem though, as the wire that we plugged the modem into is a straight ~6' run to the ground block/demarc. The weird part is that the previous tenants had an old D2 modem that was fine, and we've gotten a couple of good speedtests, but rather randomly/ sporadically.
The contractor guy who did the two runs was very professional and did a good job, with neat wire runs, so hopefully we get someone good again. Of course I'd prefer a real Comcast employee, although the last two times I've dealt with contractors they've been fine. I wish they were union, and only they could do the truck rolls, but oh well, in a perfect world... |
