Default Century link
We have been having the same problem ever since it was hooked up. We have had the tech out 3 times and still can't find the problem. Speed test shows 9.4 down and .8 upload. They say that is correct. Century link list their internet speed at 10 Mbps which in reality is only 1.2 MBps. Mbps means Megabits and MBps means megabytes, it takes 8 megabits to make 1 megabyte. Our computers are so slow, just like dial up or slower. I have changed our wireless computers to wired and no difference. Our wireless TV wi-fi won't stream a movie from Netflix, it says the internet is too slow. I am waiting for an answer from cooporate office.
