CM1000 Xfinity - Upload Speeds

[Ron-Richardson]

Just installed the CM1000 (to wired desktop) and I have Xfinity's 250M down / 10M up.   When I run the Xfinity speed test, I get about 280M / 11M.   That looks great.  Then I upload files via FTP or file upload in cPanel, both to four different hosting services, I consistently get about 1.4M upload speed.  I don't get it...  I really wanted faster upload speeds.  Is it Xfinity?

is it 1.4MBps or 1.4 Mbps?  

It might be cPanel limitation or you need to put multiple transfer threads in the FTP tool.

It's 1.4MB.   Rookie mistake.  And, now I see that speedtests are in Mb.  So, that mystery solved.  I am getting the upload speed that I should.

But, I'm intrigued....  "multiple transfer threads in the FTP" ?   I'm using WinSCP.  Is that a feature of the FTP program or modem?  BTW, on Win 10.

[vkdelta]

yes, lot of folks forget MB vs Mb.

not sure if winSCP supports it.

you are using SFTP and not traditional FTP.

I believe Filezilla supports using FTP.
