Yet another software upgrade gone awry! This keeps happening. We're so worried about foreign nations doing this, but we keep doing it to ourselves.

Anybody else notice download/upload speeds drastically changed yesterday and today, since the system went backup? Now barely getting 100Mbps? I have the 1Gig plan, as I did with Spectrum. Spectrum was always a bit less than Fidium, although Fidium is symetrical. See my post prior:

Google speedtest ... down/up 472/498

Last one.

Rebooting the ONT and the router (unplug, wait a bit and re-plug) seems to be resetting the hardware.

470.1 Mbps download 430.6 Mbps upload now.

Don't know if this will continue. I have till Nov. 9th till I have to return Spectrum boxes. This will make my decision on which broadband provider to go with.

I’m consistently running at 941mbps down 870 to 930 mbps up before and after the outage. Latency consistently at 8-10ms, highest 12ms.

Been pretty happy with Fidium so far.

Make sure you are testing the modem not your WiFi/router speed.

Thanks for the feedback.
Actually, I'm happy with anything close to 500-600 Mbps. I'm using my laptop for the speedtest and the speedtest are OOKLA and Google speedtests. Right now around 7:00 am I'm getting download/upload for Ookla at 423/601; Google at 439/473.

Pretty sure the tests are on both the ONT and router.

The "settings' on my laptop for "Network & internet, aggregated link speed", shows 866/866 Mbps.

My Android Fidium speedtest on the Fidium Attune app shows 1128/1107Mbps.

I'm testing wireless, not hardwired.

I suspect my speedtest has a lot to do with my older laptop and the 17 devices the systems says I have connected. Most are wireless like my multiple Spypoint cameras in the woods of our property. I do have an ethernet camera on my backdeck, however. The wife and like animal pics sent wireless. I'm not a hunter, however. I haven't hunted since Vietnam... May 1967 to Feb. 1969
