Re: Switched from 75/75 to Gigabit plan, problem with upload speed.
Beyond speed testing, I have noticed hangups and slow loading (sometimes not loading at all) pages in multiple browsers, as well as worse latency numbers while gaming. Pretty disappointing really coming from 75/75 and experiencing worse performance now. I'll look into the firewall, however I am only using Windows 10 firewall/anti-virus and it was not causing me issues before with my previous internet package.6.6KViews0likes1CommentRe: Switched from 75/75 to Gigabit plan, problem with upload speed.
Thanks for the reply. I have used the SpeedTest app, as well as SpeedTest.net with the same results. I am choosing the Telus server for Calgary (my city) and I see an initial spike of about 1.5mbps, then it tapers off to 0mbps. If I choose, say, Axia Connect LTD. (also in Calgary) I get 940mbps download and upload. I have tried fast.com as well with less than favorable results. It generally shows 400mbps download speed and 1.5mbps or lower upload speed.6.7KViews0likes3CommentsSwitched from 75/75 to Gigabit plan, problem with upload speed.
I recently switched from 75/75 plan to gigabit. With that change, my modem was swapped from the T3200 to the new Wi-Fi Hub. This is the only hardware change in my system. Before the change, my hardwired PC was getting consistent 80/80+ speeds using the SpeedTest app (as suggested by the technician who came for the setup.) Now, that same PC is getting 900+ download but 0 upload through the SpeedTest app. This is using the Telus server through SpeedTest. If I change to any other server in SpeedTest, my results are 900/900+. All drivers are up to date with my PC. A touch more information: using the built-in Wi-Fi of my PC, I am achieving normal speeds of 600/600+ through SpeedTest. Any help of guidance is appreciated, customer support and tech support provided me with none unfortunately.6.7KViews0likes9Comments
