Ultimate Internet - Should get around 100-150 download, getting 17-22 download - WOW, very disappointed
Ultimate Internet should be getting around 100-150 Mbps download...Getting under 30. Very disappointed in the price that I pay and the service that Cox delivers. I ran 3 speed test through Cox Servers. This is a Cat5 into the modem. Already reset it. Super dissapointed.
COVID-19, Slow Speeds, and Why You Are Paying Full Price for Them!
COVID-19 is clearly slowing down many of Cox’s servers due to the increase of Residential use across the nation. Many more people are at home and needing to use the internet for very demanding virtual tasks to replace going to work. Gaming has also increased substantially with schools and colleges around the nation closing. This is throttling your internet speeds drastically as we speak! Why are we still paying full price for our service then? Follow this link to submit an informal complaint to the FCC for Cox’s unwillingness to reimburse their customers for paying for full price speeds, while realistically receiving fractions of the speed! https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us For example I have the Ultimate package at 300 mbps, and currently I am receiving anywhere from 5 kbps to 20 mbps!
Downstream crawling / Upstream still fast
Hello - I have been having an issue with my connection for the past 2-3 weeks. I pay for 300mbps down / 30mbps up and have had no issues until now. I am getting between <1mpbs to around 7mbps down at best. Unacceptable. I used to regularly get 300mb down and sometimes even faster at non-peak times. I've done all the troubleshooting COX suggested and now they want me to change out my cable modem as a troubleshooting step and (of course) recommend I rent the modem from them. No thanks. I'd rather pay for my own and not give another $10-$15 per month to Cox. My question is this: how can the problem be the modem if it is still capable of providing the advertised upstream speed? I have made no changes to the topology. Here are my modem's stats (below) if it helps. I don't know how to read them, so maybe someone here with more experience can tell me where the problem lies. Thanks, all!
