RBK 852 slow wired and Wi-Fi than this time last year
Even with these numbers on my speedtest.net app on my iPhone 11 Pro Max my Wi-Fi still seems slow. Is it me or my ISP?? Once flu season is well passed and it gets warmer I’m going to be calling my ...
I’m so sorry I didn’t provide more info. I meant to. When the fiber was first installed yes sites loaded faster. Streaming apps loaded video faster too. Download on wired PC via speedtest.net was around 945 down and up. Now slower. Ping was lower at first too. Same with Wi-Fi. Speeds were faster, download and upload was a larger number and ping was lower. During I’d say the first 6 months of it coming to my area and me getting hooked up the speed was wonderful. Never had a single issue. I don’t know really at all how any of this works. I just know when I first got it it was faster. I’d have wired desktop speeds of like 940 down and 940 up with a ping of 3. Now the upload and download are slightly lower and the ping on the desktop is 5. Likewise on my iPhones and iPads the speed was faster both download and upload and the ping was 5 and now it’s 8-10. Maybe this is normal and I just need to get used to it but it’s hard to wrap my head around all of this.
Oh and before I forget… the ISP Website is

My guess is that your initial impression is correct. As more customers subscribe to the service, there is more traffic and thus performance suffers..... slightly. I am a bit surprised that the difference is enough for a person to notice. Those of us with ping times above 11ms (compared to your 😎 are green with envy.
- I totally understand. I just wish it were still as good as my day 1. Is there a chance I don’t have it quite setup correctly?? I never could get anyone to walk me through as I set it up from start to finish. I really wish I had that. My health is so bad. The internet is my only entertainment.
