speed

I received an email telling me that I get over 1200 download mpbs and 300 upload 300 mbps.your claims that I get over 1200 mbps download speed and 300mbps upload speed are  very FALSE! I check my speed daily and I have never seen any download faster than 900 mbps and upload of 100mbps. I am not complaining but I do not appreciate the lies.

user_m68wpd Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know about your experience, and we sincerely apologize if the information you received was misleading. It's completely understandable why you would be frustrated.

I'd be happy to help clarify the situation. To get a better idea of what's going on, could you please tell me if you are testing your speeds on a hardwired connection (using an ethernet cable) or a Wi-Fi connection?

There is a big difference between the two. When you test your speeds on a Wi-Fi connection, many factors can impact your results, such as the number of devices connected, the distance from your modem, and even the building materials in your home. For this reason, the speeds you get over Wi-Fi are often much lower than the actual speed of the internet service coming into your home. A hardwired connection, however, provides a direct line to your modem and is the best way to get a true reading of the speeds you are receiving.

 

Once I know how you are testing, we can look into this further for you.
