Re: Brand New Gigablast Download Speeds Are Unacceptable
Issue resolved. Just canceled Gigablast (you guys should really rename that) and went back down to preferred 150. I returned all my expensive DOCSIS 3.1 Modems and have my little trusty modem back online and getting the speed I'm paying for! Wasted a whole week of my life and I got a $23 credit lol. So awesome.8Views0likes0CommentsRe: Gigablast Speed is not near where it should be
Jem, I found the fix to your issue. Simply cancel Gigablast. Im not even joking, I went through all this BS for almost a week. I was getting around 400mbps and thats tweaking all the settings in my adapter card, changing all the coaxials, you name it I done it. So I downgraded to the ultimate which is up to 500mbps in my area and guess what? Same modem just different plan and my speed went down to 250mbps (WTF right?). I canceled and went back to the preferred 150, you get the most bang for your buck and not paying for what you're not getting. Cox gigablast is a hoax.0Views0likes0CommentsAny fixes to Modem Issues with Gigablast.
I’ve been reading that many people are experiencing slow gigablast speeds hardwired. My situation is almost the same. Got gigablast and bought a shiny new nighthawk CM1200 modem to go along nicely with it. To my disappointment and to many others, I was only able to pull 300–350 hardwired directly into the modem. Had techs come out to replace everything from the street to the house, we ran a test with the new coaxial and we got The full 1Gb. Now I connected it to the modem and hardwired it my ASUS ROG laptop and boom! 300mbps....what a let down. has anyone every got this issue resolved???? I’ve seen many posts but no solutions! I’m thinking that the modem was not configured correctly by Cox or it’s possibly a bad modem? kinda sad when I’m getting almost the same speeds I Was getting before on 150 preferred. Oh well I can always go back, I got my trusty Arrias SB1693 on standby.240Views0likes0Comments
