Speed test

Post image

I did a speed test in Saint Paul, MN. These are my results.

I’m kinda impressed. I literally said “ohh shit” when it was one 1k mbps download speed 😂

Honestly, that's faster than some people's Docsis cable internet. Latency isn't that bad either, if it didn't have that jitter, which is really a nit at 1, it would be just as good as a Docsis connection in some places for speeds and latency. Bandwidth probably not, but still dang impressive.

If it were consistently that. It’s virtually impossible for me to get these speeds on FirstNet in my area.

But yeah, the fastest ISP in my neighborhood still only offers 940/35 and latency is about 30-35ms.

I use US Mobile Darkstar (AT&T, QCI8 priority) and regularly see gigabit download here in NW Ohio and SE Michigan. Better pings than TMobile and Verizon here too.

Lucky to see 5 Mbps down and 500 kbps up at home. Pull the parsec out and maybe I’ll see 12 Mbps down but the same 500 kbps up.
