Rut Ro...Someone is Mad :o

Someone at HN is apparently mad that I'm not happy with my Gen 5 service thus far...yikes! :o  I was consistently getting 28 to 30Mbps on Gen 4 the last couple of months.

    Really?  Does my testmy download speed screenshot not show up for you?  18Mbps vs 48 on Gen 5 that I got yesterday and 28+ the last couple of months on Gen 4.

      18Mbps is an acceptable speed, especially if you tested over wifi, and even if not over wifi, it still falls with in a good margin.

        Corrosive, what are your testmy results?  Oh wait, I found them.

        I'm betting you wouldn't consider 17 and 18 acceptable and falling within a "good margin".  I am connected directly (bypassing router).

        My test results have been 28+ with Gen 4.  Yesterday, 48Mbps (like many others have reported) on Gen 5.  I'm sorry, 18 and 17.2Mbps are not acceptable in my book.  My browsing is painfully slow tonight.  Some pages won't even load.  So far the pole problem, speed problem and messed up wifi settings/devices have made this whole experience regrettable :(
