[TWC] Plz post your SPEED during peak hours

Please post your speed during peak hours (night and weekend).

I'd like to know whether people is getting the speed they deserve.
IMHO, most home customers use their Internet during night and weekend unless they are unemployed.
Therefore, getting advertised speed only during early morning and daytime is pretty much useless for those people.

Currently, I'm getting 150-600 kbps(D/L) and 350 kbps(U/L) during peak hours.

What's yours?

Do you just have the regular service? Because if so, your upload speed is fine. The max on the regular service is 384kbps.

Its about 4500/340 all day every day for me, which pretty much indicates that I get near the max out of it, which works for me.

4774 / 362 for me. RR has been amazingly stable for me, only having issue when my modem died.

I'm with most people on this thread, with 10/1 I constantly see speeds of 9200 - 9500 down and 950-970 up, no matter the time of day.

I double checked it today running speed tests every 30 mins or so from 4PM until now, and was always within spec.

I get about 4800/360 all the time. It's been stable ever since last March when they got everything from the speed upgrade fixed. I haven't had a single problem since then.

I'm new, just had RR a week. peak time tests have been at 4770/360 all the time. This morning at 7.30 AM I did get 4200/360, the worst I have noted since I got it.

It's not the speed that is the problem for me, it's the freaking packet loss.

I get the same speeds 24/7. I can d/l from RR nntp or certain servers like ones hosted by akami at a full 600KB, most servers are 300-500KB. Upload is right around 45-48KB.

Generally the same almost all of the time for me. I have Earthlink through TWC but its still about the same which is approx 4700/355 and I think that's pretty standard for a 5000/384 connection. Doesn't slow at night really but my Vonage calls tend to be a bit more unpredictable at peak times.....

Once I traded out my crappy modem for a good Motorolla one, I've been getting consistent speed and connectivity.

Around 4500/4600 down and 320 up.

Mine are bad again West Coast is ok but beyond that really bad speed. I used to get 3000 down (when the cap was 3000) around the clock to the East Coast as well as the West. Now, East Coast speeds ever since the upgrade to 5000 down have really sucked. I think most of the reason is the lack of use of ATDN routing now and insteading using Level 3 too much.

I even get horrible speeds now on the OOL FTP test. I used to get 365-75KB\Sec transfer rate around the clock when our cap was 3000. Now, I am lucky to get 200KB/Sec transfer rate. Yet my speed on West Coast tests is usually 4700-4800. I was so embarrassed when Nikon in New York had me download a big file around 10PM about a week ago. It was 82MB and downloaded at 85KB/Sec. Just pitiful. I don't pay full price for RR because of this problem which Oceanic readily admits but doesn't fix.

I noticed,,, as soon as it got cold outside, my SNR dropped a tad, my downstream signal dropped about 7db, and somehow my upstream signal is lower then ever, that doesn't make make sense to me. Anyone have any explanation. I'm all ears

Re: [TWC] Plz post your SPEED during peak hours

Signal should not change much if any due to weather. 0.5 db/mv at most(accounting for how well copper conducts in extreme cold). I would get RR on the phone right now and don't let them BS you about the signal. The readings you showed stink badly and in such a bad line there could be distortion issues as well as noise out of normal spectrum in the line that may not be reflected in S/N. It just gives an overall noise level, but not the whole picture on leakage, This is a warning flag, get RR down there now. You will definitely have more speed and the issue is obviously on your line or on the pole. Should be an easy fix and use the yes sir call back method if the tech you call is a total moron. This should be an easy fix-a residential one, not network. As for me, I'm almost in top of my class in Albany RR division with most recent reading 4.23 mbps(yes Albany is a performance dropout) Speed is good for Albany RR and my pings are good to RR routers.My major problem is not with RR, it's with ATDN and Level 3 routers as I've tried to state in a few posts to let Albany know where the problem lies. Any input on dealing with it appreciated! These routers from first hop past RR are showing very significant packet loss on Pingplotter. RR has been doing maintainance on lines close to here, but here are my modem stats.

Power Level:
Received: 2.3 dBmV Transmitted: 50.0 dBmV

Received SNR: 33.7 dB

As a footnote, a line that's not grounded right will draw LESS current than a good line, may explain your very low upstream power but bad down

I get great speeds, 4600/370 or around 600 kilobytes per second for downloading and around 50 kilobytes per second for uploading.
