They had no explanation as to why spectrums online speed test was showing the results to be so much slower. I called spectrum, they claimed to be able to check my speed at my modem from their end to which it measured 238 Mbps. Not sure why spectrum and at&t were so far off of the others. I tested 12 different speed tests through my browser including spectrum and at&t 8 times each, results for each stayed consistent throughout the tests. Only at&t had as bad of results as spectrum.


Most of the others i just tested had between 185 and 265. Now to the speed tests, spectrum speed test over a browser currently shows 65 Mbps while ookla shows 246 Mbps. Could be too many users on the node, poor connections in the cabling or any number of causes. Speedtest by Ookla - The Global Broadband Speed Test Go Results Settings Microsoft Azure 40.77.167.157 Comcast Richmond, VA Change Server Connections Multi Single Use Speedtest on all your devices with our free native apps. This can be confirmed by asking spectrum engineers directly as i did. Anything short of those speeds indicate an actual problem. Not the speeds measured leaving their servers. The speeds advertised are what you should receive at the tap. I have no clue how these things get calculated but if they guarantee a range of speeds to their customers then those are the speeds you should get, regardless of any outside factors that have been spoken of or insinuated. I read this and couldnt help remembering how i pulled my hair out over speed tests in the past, near past. I have spectrum internet, for me im supposed to get up to 250 Mbps if i remember correctly.
