Here we go again...

For the last month and a half or so my speeds have been great.  Much better than they previously had been, and even during the peak hours they were great.  My modem updates last night and now this...

 

 

After months of slower speeds and then finally going back up to being great, I really hope that this evening is just a fluke.  :(  

 

  • Well, it looks like it may have just been something temporary, as my speeds have been decent since those few bad ones.  

     

    Next time I should wait a bit longer before getting worried.

    And it gets even better.  This is after a power cycle...

      Well, my signal strength had gone down to 90, from it being at 115 earlier, and now it's up to 130, which is the highest I've ever seen it, by far.  My speed is also back up.  

       

      There was heavy rain in Roseburg, OR, where my gateway is, which would explain the signal strength drop, but the speed started dropping a couple of hours before the rain ever hit.  I checked the weather there when I first noticed the speed dropping.  

       

      Anyway, here's my most recent speed test...

      lucky you we are at around 3.8 and can't watch anything.  We've called the tech out twice now and it's not better

        If you'd like to have your issue(s) addressed, please start a new topic in Tech Support, and one that actually explains the problem(s) instead of just "nothing."
