I found a problem with my internet connection today. I was uploading a video and the connection was horrendous. I thought perhaps something was wrong with my computer, router or something here in the office. However, testing the connection directly to the cable modem from multiple computers proved that was not the case. My download speed was averaging about 26Mb per second (awesome) but the upload speed was closer to 170kb per second (puke).

I contacted the cable internet provider and they were quickly able to tell me my connection was being limited. The next step is to send a technician out to my house to investigate the source of the problem.

We’ll see what comes of all this.
Perhaps this is why the modsonair show was so laggy this morning? Sorry :(

  1. Man that sucks, although that’s about normal speed for round here. I don’t think it was your fault about modsonair, i think that’s just Suckem.

  2. I’ve come to accept that as wrong as it is, you are in the hands of the ISP and whatever the guy on the end of the phone says, you need to accept and let them send an engineer round. Atleast with UK ISP’s.

    Remember all my connection issues I used to have? Urgh.

    As for the connection speed. 26 is very awesome. 50Mb was released a month or so ago here, but it’s slowly being rolled out. Just need to rob a bank to pay for it and I’m in business.
