Well I cheked everything with pingtest. First I checked the ping and
packet test in 3 different cities. Seattle, Washington, Washington DC and
Dallas Texas. no packets were lost in any of the tests.
Here are the results All resents are in Mbps
Speakeasy City Pingtest
2.78 Down Seattle, Wa 2.55 D
.51 Up .51 U
111ms ping
2.64 D Washington DC 2.51 D
.52 U .51 U
126 ms
2.87 D Dallas, TX 2.51 D
.52 U .52 U
99 ms.
My home is in Tucson.
I was signed up at the 7Mps, but I know that with DSL your speed depends on
your distance from the hub. I am very happy with these speeds.
For what I'm paying this is good. I could go to cable at double the rate.
I don't do anything where I would need that extra speed.
I'm keep coming back to a problem with ether Chrome or the post.
Thanks
Steve
