• SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW VPN IPSEC HOW TO CONFIGURATION HELPPPP

  Is this for remote access VPN? If so, what kind of bandwidth are you seeing on a speed test site like fast.com (with the VPN off) compared to the VPN bandwidth you're experiencing? Source: 4 months ago

• I am a MacOS user, new to windows and my wifi won’t load fast enough; are these updates the issue?

  What result do you get from fast.com ? What about if you ping your router? Source: 4 months ago

• Is this good speed?

  Websites like speedtest.net, fast.com and etc do provide measurement in megabits, and even with that, speedtest.net provides it between you and your ISP(mostly) only. So if you want to download something from lets say, YouTube, the speed will be slightly different because now you're connecting to Google's server, not your ISP's server. This is because speedtest.net has partnership with ISPs so that speedtest.net... Source: 5 months ago

• Help!!! FPS AND downloading games speeds.

  If fast.com and speedtest.net are fast, then it's not the computer or your internet. Source: 5 months ago

• Internet shuts off when downloading

  If you try a speed test with only your PC connected via LAN (visit fast.com), do you get reasonable upload and download speeds? Are the speeds consistent? Source: 5 months ago

• Netflix App on Windows 11 - Categories Not Working

  Check my internet connection (seems fine based on fast.com and speedtest.net). Source: 5 months ago

• Speed Test Site for 2Gbps+

  Fast.com gets 1.6gbps for me. I cant test past that because I dont have internet that fast... Source: 5 months ago

• Speed Test Site for 2Gbps+

  FWIW fast.com just gave me ~600Mbps, then 1.7Gbps on a second attempt. Wifiman 2131.43Mbps/2189.04Mbps, and speedtest.net with i3D.net server (Newark NJ) was 2194.01/2360.88. Source: 5 months ago

• Speed Test Site for 2Gbps+

  I'm not being argumentative when I ask this, I really am curious because I thought it was the most reliable one out there, but why is fast.com worthless? It's my go-to, so I need to know if I should switch to something else haha. Source: 5 months ago

• almost all websites but twitch are unbearably slow

  As the title states, I tried fast.com and get 1.6kbs/s while twitch is able to stream the game awards perfectly fine and 1080p, am I being throttled? How can I return the internet to normal? Source: 5 months ago

• Best/Worst Purchase of 2023

  The router they gave us is only 2.4Ghz wireles and not 5Ghz (!!!). And while it's "Up to 1Gbe" (of course I expect somewhat less, but my Nuro was still getting like 800Mb-900Mb/sec regularly), there's so much ISP-level throttling that none of our LAN connected devices get more than 200Mbps for most sites (even fast.com!) but sometimes rare spikes on downloads for 800-900 for just a few seconds here and there....

• Slow Downloads Compared to NZBGet

  I appreciate the reply. With fast.com I am at 810 Mbps down and 840 Mbps up at the current time. I agree the bandwidth test does not match either my actual connection speed and even lower then what SAB has my downloads coming in at. It is not a connection issue since I can 66 MB/s with NZB on the same files. I am still under my total connection speed but double SABs speed with the same news server setup. Source: 5 months ago

• Shaw tech said not to trust speed test sites...

  I just had Shaw internet installed and when I check on fast.com, speedtest.net, google built-in speed test or even speedtest.shaw.ca I am getting around 600mbs download, my current internet plan is 1gig. Source: 5 months ago

• Home WiFi slow only on some devices

  When checking multiple devices for their internet speeds on fast.com while sitting next to the Gateway, my phone consistently is getting in the low-mid 100 Mbps range while the computer is getting 450+ Mbps. Source: 5 months ago

• Slow Wifi speeds with new Legion Pro 7i

  That is your network or Internet issue, not the laptop. The laptop itself is capable of 1Gb/s, not to mention what you get... Test with fast.com, not speedtest, it's more reliable, manually set numbers of parallel downloads e.g from 8 to 16 (in settings on the page). Source: 5 months ago

• Is my isp banning these websites?

  Today when I woke up, I couldnt open discord and twitter on my pc. Arent working in phones either. Everything else is working just fine. fast.com says that my internet is of 0.0 kbps. What do I do? Source: 5 months ago

• Very poor upload speed

  I've run several tests on speediest.net and fast.com on my computer today in different places and the results in the spot where ps5 is seems to be the best in my whole apartment besides like literally next to the router with 200mbps download and 60mbps upload. I've also run test with fast.com on my ps5 web browser and the upload is even lower than on ps5 internal internet speed test. I get results of 10 to 40 kbps. Source: 5 months ago

• Very pleased so far!

  Unfortunately despite these speeds, the instructions Calyx provides (https://calyxinstitute.org/throttle-fix) to unthrottle video streaming and fast.com do not work. Setting the B2B APN makes no difference. fast.com reports only 2.5Mbps. Source: 5 months ago

• Not hitting my download speeds. By far.

  Go to fast.com what is the highest you get there. Source: 5 months ago

• High Loaded Latency / Download Latency - solutions?

  I never used to have this problem but recently my download latency (on speedtest.net) or my Loaded latency (on fast.com) is really high. Source: 5 months ago
