Download Speed ?????
It seems my speed isn't what it should be. With 150mbps Cox service, I was only getting 30mbps at my pc on wireless. With a hard conn from the modem I got 50mps. I took my modem and laptop to the cox coax coming into the house and connected directly to that. Multiple speed tests gave 50mbps. I took my laptop (without modem) to my neighbors (who is on a different street connection) and read 150mbps. I got Cox out and the tech redid some connections. Now at the Cox coax my laptop reads 80mbps several times, a slight increase. We took the ethernet cable out of my laptop and plugged it into the tech's meter. It read 150mbps several times. Is there any explanation for this difference?????? If anyone can think of anything, I'd really appreciate it. I feel I'm not getting what I'm paying for from Cox. It shouldn't be the modem since the same modem was used for my laptop and the tech meter but I'm going to try a new one anyway.1.5KViews0likes6Comments
