looking for feedback on Fair Point internet

I'm assuming they are one and the same. Metrocast in Laconia with high speed internet subscription averages around 20ms. They claim after the last upgrade I should see 35 mbps. The latest mbps is 20, the same as it has been since I upgraded the router to DOCSIS 3.0.

My neighbor has Fairpoint DSL, which average around 10 mbps with average ping around 5 ms. His browsing speed appears faster than mine. Is it because of the ping?

Both testing is done over a year time span with speedtest.net.

Comments wifi?
