Re: Slow Speed

The speed test on the Forum is nor reliable IMO. I get 11 meg on that test and 106 meg on speedtest.net.

Akso, do tell us whether or not you are wired or on wireless for your test.

Re: Slow Speed

But you didn't show us the results of speedtest.net compared with the Forum speed test!

Re: Slow Speed

Is that your answer then? Peak time congestion + the Forum speed test is unreliable?
