I am testing my new Gigabit connection with Speedtest's desktop client, directly connected to the ONT. (I think that's the right term? The modem anyway.)
My laptop is a 2012 13" Macbook Air with a Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter that, according to the system profile, supports up to 10 Gbps.
So the upstream looks right, but what's going on with the downstream?
And of course the speeds deteriorate as expected when testing over 802.11N—I wonder if this can be better:
I'm trying to test, troubleshoot, and tune my home setup but want to verify I can get the correct speeds first. As I mentioned in the Gigabit Berkeley thread, I was or still am the first in my building to be activated, are there "kinks" to be worked out?
I've read a few posts that testing via ONT with a desktop client is the best and typically there are no issues in the backend and it's usually the home setup that's the bottleneck.
