well you have 4 downstream channels, so it looks like you are on either 30mb or 50mb

Can you post the config page?

Re: Speed not going over 2.34 MB
 

hmmm. the mystery deepens :-) I never upgraded unless they did it without my knowledge. Anyway, that makes the problem worse. speedtst.net always shows 10 mb, and as I said for years it never went below 9 mb.

Cheers! You are definitely on 10meg (Max Traffic Rate : 10240000 bps)

I dont know exactly how VM have their tiers set-up, but I dont think anything below 30meg should be on DOCIS3 and using multiple downstreams, though it is all backwards compatible. The engineer should have replaced your old modem with an Ambit 256 not a VMNG300 (there isnt anything wrong with the modem you have, far from it!). Like I say, the VM staff who float around here will know more.

But this may end up being a good thing, as you can call up retentions tomorrow and if you can wrangle a discount and speed uplift to 30meg you can have it straight away without needing a new modem.

I called tech support twice this week and they gave identical answer. "your speed will go back to normal at 1:30 am". To me , it means they are deliberately throttling me for now reason. I dont come home till 8 pm from work. problem start 9 pm.

Might be an idea to setup a Thinkbroadband Ping Monitor to check utilisation. :)
