Very slow upload speeds. Download speed is normal. No equipment changes
Hello, Last week my upload speeds dropped to around 0.5 - 2mbps. Download speedsare still normal (400 - 500 Mbps). No equipment changes. Connection has been working normally 6+ years prior to that. Modem: Arris SB6183 plugged in directly to the PC Unplugged, restarted, new cables etc. Nothing has helped so far. Any suggestions how to fix? testmy.net result:https://testmy.net/db/i~g3nG8f4.GXPQowtGP Arris status:538Views0likes1CommentUpload speeds insanely low
Upload speed has been below 0.10 mbps recently if not lower. My download speeds have been perfectly fine. I cant figure out the problem and i cant find any other forum post like this that has been answered ,But it seems like a lot of people are having this issue.

Friends at Cox, I am at a loss. In previous posts and conversations, I have gone to great technical lengths to resolve issues with upload speeds. Now I'm trying to gather some information to see if there's something simple I am missing. From2013-2017, I streamed (on multiple platforms) in high quality at roughly 4500 bitrate with crystal clarity. I played games with virtually no lag. College courses and their associated virtual labs, no issues. Everything ran perfectly. I generally had a mid-level data plan running in the 100-200 down and 30 up (advertised). After coming back from a 7 month trip I moved down the street and experienced severe packet loss and upload issues. I troubleshooted with Cox reps and coworkers for awhile and never could isolate the issue. I work in networking and work with a range of people with a range of skill sets in networking and couldn't isolate the issue. I swapped out every single piece of hardware from my network card to the modem. Additionally, manipulated every aspect of software from packet manipulation through VPN's that claim to prioritize packets to reduce loss to IP stack manipulators and dozens of YouTube videos that help "fix" the problem. After that, I literally moved across the country from the West Coast to the East Coast and ran into the same problem. Routers, modems, cables and even my entire desktop have been swapped out. All routers / modems are highly capable and expensive and rated for this environment. Every single piece of hardware has been replaced and tested methodically and I STILL experience upload issues and packet loss. Currently, I'm running "Gigablast" internet. Download speeds range from 300-900 Mbps and upload speeds range from 6-25 Mbps but with packet loss when streaming / uploading. If anyone that has been experiencing these issues has found a solution or fix in any capacity I'd love to hear about it or start some dialogue on hardware/software setups and troubleshooting processes involved to see what the issue is.807Views0likes1CommentSlow Upload Speeds; Trying to Stream on Twitch
So recently I have been trying to stream on Twitch.tv, and even thoughwe paying for the Ultimate Internet package, which includes 30mbps upload, I am only able to stream at 3500 bitrateand this still doesn't guarantee a good quality stream without dropped frames. I would also like to mention that even though we are paying for this service, I am getting an average of about 20-24mbps upload, with it very rarely reaching 30mbps. I called about this a week ago I had two techs come out so far. One came out Monday the 17th and another came out today at around noon. The first tech said everything should be fixed by Friday, but I have performed multiple speed tests since then and I have yet to see speeds remotely close to 30mbps aside from a couple trials. (see attached image) He also put in a ticket for someone from Cox's maintenance team to come and see if there were any issues on the line outside my house, and from what I have been told, everything has been resolved yet I am still experiencing less than expected upload speeds. I also have performed multiple Twitch Bandwidth tests toverify that there is an issue with my upload speed, and sure enough I get mediocre bandwidth results along with very low quality connections to servers that are close to me. (see attached image) Not sure what to do at this point because it seems like getting a tech out here for the third time would be nothing but a nuisance to them, since all they do is come here and tell me they can't do anything about it and that they will forward the issue. Hopefully someone on here can provide me with some help. Thanks11KViews0likes17Comments
