Realy slow internet this past week.

I have the premire package with 150 mp  suposidly but all I get is 1 to 1. 4  download speed and 1 upload thats just bad for what I pay for the service. Have reset router  and still get  this slow.   its very noticable in the games I play.  I slow down then speed up then slow again.    Not a happy camper

    wired  and across all computers  

    tho on the others we figure more on being older machines but this one is a new build with good grapics and 8 g mem  and a uptodate cpu  thou running window 7 due to not having funds to buy win 10 yet.

    oh and I checked the speed on ;your site and on others.

  • Hi, please check all connections to make sure they are all tightened. Are there any splitters on the cable line from the wall outlet to the modem?

    no splitters   the modem I think is 5 years old  then we shoot to a router  that is about that too   modem is from cox router is a linken  other than that I dont know where to find the info on them.

    unplugged and re pluged  turned off and turned on   sent reset from your web page  just a bit ago and did speed test after   was getting less than 1 before  reset now get 1.4.   still to low for what we pay.  .

  • Joha,

    Are you able to please bypass the router and connect a computer directly to the modem for another speed test? Please let us know the upload, download, and latency.


    Thank you,

    was unable to get the modem to connect my computer to internet.  had to put router back in to answer you  kept saying invalid ip 

  • The modem usually needs a reset after connecting a new device. If it's still not picking up an IP, please reboot the computer as well.

    Thanks!

    It does sound like it's working much better without the router. We're not allowed to recommend such equipment although other users here may have some useful suggestions.
