Hello all,
The Fusion connection started off, weeks ago, with about 5.5 megabits down and .91 megabits up. The sign up page for Fusion showed that the house is almost 8000 feet from the nearest thingy that matters for speed.
I have been using three, online speed testing sites, including the one at Sonic. Speed has gradually declined. Today the Sonic speed meter shows 4.84 down and .73 up. I always ensure that no downloads or uploads are running when I do the tests. I have tried other phone plugs in different parts of the house to rule out bad home wiring. I run the tests at different times of day on different computers.
5.5 down and .91 up is not bad. As the down and up speeds decline though it seems not so good.
Is there anything else I can test here at the house? Could Sonic support check the connection at the Sonic end of the wire? I hope there is not a cat there chewing on the wires. I've seen that happen before.
Thanks,
Steve
