Re: [HSI] Ultra100 Getting 12mbit - Constant problem...

Tier 1 is useless...

Problem is very clearly over-saturation of the node. Back to 85mbit after midnight local.

You might as well take a trip down to the local office and ask to speak to a supervisor it's the only way I could get things fixed back in the day. I was using the Charter social media team but they don't exist anymore

This is probably the best way to go at this point.

I would specifically ask for a maintenance engineer and if they are not available when you visit the office ask for a direct extension to his office or give them your number and have him call you back.

Hence, when they're not getting it done you ask to be transferred to level 2 or a supervisor.

I am experiencing the same issue. I talked to 5 Charter techs through chat and phone over the last week. Started earlier this week for me. I am getting much lower speeds on average. I am seeing 2-4MB down and still getting the usual 4-5MB up which is acceptable. I am on the 100/5 plan. Two of the techs told me that they are supposed to provide at least 70% of the top end of your tier. So, I should be seeing 70MB at least. They even sounded surprised. I have tried multiple computers directly connected to the modem. Signals are great and confirmed with support.

The last time I had an issue like this, the technicians came out and got the same results at the tap. This is definitely a Charter issue. I have a technician coming out tomorrow.

Sounds exactly like my situation. Let me know if it gets resolved, and if so, how you went about it.

I will let you know what I find out when tech gets here tomorrow. I am also going to reach out to a buddy at Charter. Here is my latest result.

I always heard it was 80% and even at that, if I wasn't getting better than that, somebody would be hearing about it!!

BF69, I have never got more than I paid for with Charter. That is nice. My most recent test...




I ran more tests around midnight last night and things seemed to be much better. I was getting results in the high 60MB range. Today, it has been consistently in the 60MB range. I wonder if they did something last night. I have seen horrible speeds around noon this week and today it seems to be better so far.

BF69, my parents live in Camden, TN.
