The Speakeasy Pic is Accurate


Not bad to NY either though.

Big variations here with Powerboost. Yes, up to nominl 13MB at some times (low use by others); elsewise trough sucking, even with small packets when there's load. And yes, it probably does help to have ACTUAL fibre closer. Thanks, God of Cox, for clueing us in on that tidbit.

Getting Better

Slow improvement:



If your still experiencing problems, notify level 2 on the forum. I suspect he is on holiday so give him a few days.

Re: Getting Better

Appreciate the advice but already ordered DSL 6.0. It is kinda sucky they are using "powerboost" to make it look like you are getting 12/1 speeds rather than actually providing it. I'm getting rid of cable since I never watch anything. Having it by itself is $66.95. The lower speed is $52.95.

I'm only on the 7/512 Preferred and getting the Premier speeds. Wow!

Re: Speed Test just this minute

I live in Oklahoma City and use Cox HSI - I pay 41.95/mo for their Preferred tier w/ power boost (7/512).
I average 15mbps-23mbps on download and 500kbps-900kbps up to Dallas, TX.

I'm very satisfied with my service.

Mary Esther, FL		 Good luck on that. Were in Embarq territory (/me shrugs)
I guess Oaklossia County isn't lucky enough to get ATnT.

All the speed you have but if you get packet loss your speed means nothing.

I have no packet loss. My DL speed is stays at what I said. Mostly 15mbs down sometimes jumping to 30mbps. My UL is always at a little more than 1 mbbs up. I send 5-10 meg files all the time. IE is a faster browser than Firefox just not as stable. I download 2-5 meg PDF files in about 3-5 seconds and they are opened in Adobe. I do recycle the modem twice a week. Cox said to do that so the HSI/Phone connection stays straight.

You're in AZ not Pensacola, FL. Cox, after Ivan's hurricane, replaced most of the wiring. It was thousands of miles of cable. I'm underground actually just like the power company. Just because Cox sucks in AZ doesn't mean it sucks here.

If that's a bad ping, I don't know what good is. Tracert looks good too. Just put ping www.google.com -n 20 and see what you get.

They did the 15/1 upgrade. I get way over that in the usual 20-25 range even during peak times. Hit 50 down just a minute ago.
You must have had a botched speed test to get 50Mbps on Cox because DOCSIS 1.1, what Cox has deployed right now, can't deliver 50Mbps.

just thought i chime in here. 20/5 service here and MD and hitting as much as 16 up so your not the only one getting more then you pay for supergirl, but i must say if I had yor service I would only switch it for fios. however your test score is solid compared to other people on cable.

Re: all these test

no FIOS here this is embarq terriority. if they bought out embarq, i would switch to verizon for TV and interent and phone.

the reason why prices are high is due to lack of comeitition here in the panhandle.
