| reply to joviyach Re: [Speed] Problems in Chicago?
I live in Forest Park (10m west of downtown) and i found this forum because the past 2-3 days my speeds have been abysmal. I am downloading at like 20-40kb/s instead of like 5-700 kb/s.
websites are loading super slow too. repairing, disabling/enabling, powercycling the modem hasn't done squat.
anyone figure out what the heck the problem is here?
thanks |

| I never did find out what the problem was, but it looks like it doesn't appear to have been just me. I didn't really do anything besides reboot and power cycle my router, that did not help immediately so I can only guess that whatever it was Comcast quietly fixed it in the background. |

| When the tech was here and exchanged my modem he also went up on the pole and did something there. Whatever he did, it works just fine now. |
