who is your ISP and how fast is your speed?

I have att uverse at work and when the techs hooked it up, they said the speed would be 18m down. While he was here I had him watch a speed test like the one above and the best was 7m down. he told me that the speed slows down the more computers you have hooked to the network. I think he bullshitted me. When I'm the only one working, the speed never gets above 7m. I have google fiber at home and it is the cheap 5m service and when I test it, it comes in at almost exactly 5m.

but why do I need it THAT fast?
I am currently getting days betteen 1.5up and 10up and down is 3 and 0.7
all within "range" says Clear internet
so it's not bad,
do you use netflex/stream movies with your 5M down? how is it?
I usually have less than 5 and I can stream alright

Im not within range of TW and ATT (with whom I have basic cable at $55/month) is just shitty in terms of servivce and yeah, he lied to you, unless the computers are hooked up, but not being used, still I thought be hooked up took away bandwidth and slowed you down
heck nevermind, Im getting 1000mbps when I can

Down is 56.92 Mbps

up is 6.20

I have amazon prime and have had no issues with viewing at all. I do notice that when watching prime, browsing on my tablet is slower, but not by much. I am totally satisfied with it at this time. A friend of mine had the complete package installed and they had some problems with connection, but after several attempts, google traced the problem to a kink in the line. Said the customer service was outstanding and the techs were great. They had switched from TWC and said they had no regrets.

Compared to ya'll, at ~3down and 1.5 up, I have a slow internet, (granted it gets as high as 10.5down and 8 up all on wi-fi, but it's not consistent but it works for $30-$45/month.

Im looking forward to have gigabit+tv, I'll save the tivo monthly fees($15), internet fees($45) and comcast cable fees($30-45)
so I'll end up paying a lil bit more,. but over 10x-100x faster is well worth it
plus my tivo can only record 2 shows at once! but I do love the Tivo DVR set up, I hated ATT and hated dish,
Im not within TM area

GF?

Cox in Topeka. Good enough for me

Time warner has horrible customer service. I dropped them for ATT. Stay away from time warner. When something goes wrong you are fucked. Read closely the agreement TW makes u sign. Congress has tried to pass laws to protect consumers from time Warners ridiculous contracts.

I was just trying to figure out IF I was in their service area and it was a pain.
They have a center(according to google) 5 miles from my home, yet I am not able to get service from them. They told to use Comcast, whom I already don't like.....
but even at these speeds


I'll stick with CLear rather than go back to Comcast... I just didnt have a good experience with them and while not always fast, it's enough to stream and do what I do online

I thought Netflix would be similar to using a DVR, just that fast.
it's not, but it is really close
one nice thing about GF, is when the tech didnt show up on wednesday to install, I contacted them and he came the next day and took $50 off my 1st months price.
So $70/month is more than 2x what I paid for with ATT, but it is >5x faster
and when I say 5x faster, I mean ATT hardline vs Google fiber wifi
I use wifi on my computer since I dont like my computer plugged into the internet constantly(remember the webcame blackmailing?) so I unplug my wif-usb adapter when I get offline.
Initially I was hardined into the GOOGLE FIBER, it was a litle bit faster
since I don game online, i dont really notice a difference
but I dont want to mislead you guys
These are the results from being plugged into GF, the results in t he 1st post are just wifi
WIFI


HARDWIRED

Haven't even tried it hardwired yet- the wifi is sick. Originally Posted by zeejoe

is your computer have something special to use google giganet? I am still using the same computer I've used wifi for with the non-gigna wifi
granted, if i wire it up, i have 900+ speeds

It depends on the speed of your n.i.c. (network interface card)....go to properties and see what your current card is... if it doesn't support your Internet speed than that's where the restriction is

my iphone only gets about 40 up/down when my computer, which a non optimal network interface card gets 950 down and 850 up
then sometimes my iphone/computeR(wifi) only will lose connnection and I'll have to unplug and plug back in my Mini USB Wireless Lan turn off/on wifi on my iphone to reestablish a connection
