this is ridiculous (internet speed sudden snail butt)

[otto-san]

i've avoided making a thread about this issue, but wow, it's ridiculous now.

here's my internet speed months back:






AND THEN SUDDENLY




there has been no downgrade or change in our internet plan.

it just suddenly decided to be five butts.

there are no reported problems in the area, and this has been going on for at least two months.

does anyone know what the problem may be?

i'm almost positive it's an ISP issue, but i'd like to be sure

Do not turn this into a speedtest thread. That is not the purpose of this thread. Go do that somewhere else if you want to feel good or bad about your internet.

Problems persist when connected directly to the modem.

I use Mediacom too and it is slower than a handicapped turtle.

"another modem"

the modem is provided by our ISP, we don't have another one

Type this into command prompt:
tracert google.com

Sure. Hold on.

I'm pretty sure 30Mbps is above-average.

I think the global average is ~12Mbps, but I'm only about 60% sure.

It was fine up until recently.

hey, at least your upload speed went up :)

That is a positive, I guess, yes. c:

8Mbits = 7Asses

I am sigging this because it will never happen again.
