Slow upload speeds (download is fine)
I'm on the ultimate package, normally I'm pulling 170ish down and 20 - 25 up. The past couple of days my upload speed has dropped to around 10 - 14 while my download speed remains unaffected, anyone have any ideas why this is? This actually happens in the evening too, around 7pm on towards. However the difference is that my upload speed was fine during the day, but now it's bad all the time. Any ideas whats causing this?7.6KViews0likes10CommentsUpload and Download speeds not meeting standards
Previously, I would have around 10mbps to 15mbps download and 2mbps to 3mbps upload on my network. I am currently paying for the package that is supposed to offer 30mbps down and (I think) 5mbps up. Lately, these numbers have been even worse, coming down to 7mbps down and 1mbps up.4.5KViews0likes11CommentsShaky Upload Speeds
The package that I'm subscribed to is 150down/10up and in the past couple of weeks it's been anything but that. 3mbps up is typically the absolute best I can hope for. Called multiple times and those usually end with the call mysteriously dropping. Reset the modem using the tools in the backend here. Was even told to put cloth on the tip of the coax cable. None of them resulted in a better upload speed. Last night I call and get stuck with the automated service and it restarts the modem like all the other times, but that time I get an upload speed I haven't seen since we upgraded to the package we're on now. So I begin streaming video footage to gaming.youtube.com and shortly afterwards, everything drops and I check the upload speed again and it's back again to the .3 to 3mbps I've come to be disappointed in. I know it says "up to 10", but at this point, what IS the point of the 150/10 service if I can only get 30% of that? Is there anyone who has the same problem or knows how to fix it?3KViews0likes6Comments<1.5Mbps Upstream to Ingest Servers
I'm having the exact same problem as in this thread:https://www.reddit.com/r/Twitch/comments/4cmxau/cox_is_throttling_customers_who_stream_on_twitch/ The 150/10 connection is fine and more or less advertised for all uses except streaming. The throttling occurs not just on Twitch but with lesser known live streaming ingest servers such as VaughnSoft. What can be done to achieve the upload speeds paid for? I setup a VPN to a local friend's ATT connection and received normal speeds up to the router's abilities for a VPN indicating that it is in fact Cox throttling to streaming services. In fact, routing to a VPN in Mongolia achieves a faster upload speed.2.6KViews0likes4Comments
