| Official October 2009 Speed and Ping Test!
Thought we could compare our speeds and latency on a regular basic. Here's how my connection is performing this evening.
OS: Windows 7 Connection: 6Mbps/500K Modem: Motorola CPEi 25150 Modem Location: Portland, OR 97232

| reply to w0g Now that the old system has been turned off I am forced to try to use the new system. Which, for my location is quite miserable. With the old system I would routinely get 1.5 Mb/s and pings around 50-70ms. The new is considerably worse. Sigh.

| reply to w0g Speed varies a lot but rarely over 3MB's Not great when paying for unlimited. It is better then 1.5 MB DSL from Quest(fastest available) I don't want to pay the much higher price for Comcast. |

There you have it, I'm consistently above the 10Mbps mark as Clear upgrading the firmware on the Ethernet modem. |

| reply to w0g Hi,
This is Chris with clear support. Just a couple of things here. First, you guys that are getting lower than expected speeds, if can please give us a call at 1-888-888-3113 we can look to see what is causing your speeds to be slow. Second, if you are using a USB modem at home you may want to try and swap for a Home modem instead since they pick up more signal inside. Thank you for your posts. |
