Hey Guys

I have a 20/10Mbps from Cool Ideas but my line seems to only have a throughput of 3Mbps at the moment.

735681

This test was done a few minutes ago to their Randburg speedtest node. This is in the Pretoria East area. Does anyone else have the same experience at the moment?

Thank you very much.

I'm in Fourways on 20/10 and am getting my full line speed.

Are you testing with a cabled device?

A bit late, but I'm also PTA East on OS 100/50. Test was run from Chrome running on a cabled Ubuntu Linux.

Just showing that I'm having no issues.
 
Bit late, but I've just noticed that I'm getting the same thing. I'm on a 20/20 line in Edenvale and can't get higher than 5mb

Hi

No on wireless but right next to it. many previous tests on wireless I have been getting the full 19Mb down and 18MB up?

I will have to try a wired test tonight when i get home? Are you able to see the speed of the line from your side?

PS did a test again this morning, only get a 7MB down and a 15MB up

The speed of the line doesn't just "change" as DSL did, please test with a cable as wireless is pretty much always the culprit.

Hi I will do tests later with a cable.
 
As a side note, also just check that there's no MAC/IP limiting set on the router. This has been a cause of slow speeds for a MyBB user in the past.
 
@PBCool Please see results on cable, very similar speeds. did a multi and single connection.

I have sent this through to the ticket as well #COOL-20191113-336651

Have you logged it? And this is using a cabled device?

It's ok again now after a rest by CISP followed by a reset on my side:
