Starting earlier this afternoon, my internet connection has been very poor. On speedtests I'm getting 25Mbps down and 0.5Mbps up (on the 500/15 plan). Packetloss is through the roof. However, all my modem signal levels look good. I called technical support, but they said everything looks good and I should call the modem manufacturer (Arris) to see what the problem is. Sigh: Is there anyway to get directly to higher level support for these things? Anyway, here is my connection information - would be grateful if somebody higher up can relay if there is something going on in my neighborhood or with the lines as I don't believe it is anything on my end - calling into Comast tech support is turning out to be worthless on these things.
This is a hardwired ethernet connection.
