I could understand if we were running the speed test through our equipment, but we're directly connecting to their router to eliminate possible traffic from our equipment.Īre we just being unreasonable to ask for something remotely close to what we're paying for through a speed test? We did at one point last week see 450 down and 950 up but it has since settled back around 450-600 for both. I'm fully aware that a speed test isn't the be-all and end-all, but I feel like if we are supposed to be getting a 1gbps we shouldn't be seeing 450-600mbps up and down max.


The technicians continue to tell us that speed test sites aren't accurate and we can't go by them (though we run a handful of them every time I talk to a technician). They are now wanting to run a PiPerf test using a RaspberryPi directly connected through the router. He seemed be confused by that, but in the end concluded that it was fine.

Though, the result of the iPerf3 test (if I understood the tech correctly) showed that we were sending the full gig to the router but only receiving 807m back. Thus far, Lumen has tested the circuit using an etherSam test and said it's fine, and they've performed an iPerf3 test and said it's fine. Anyone else using Lumen and not seeing the full speeds you're paying for? We recently upgraded our circuit to 1gbps fiber and using various speed test sites, we're typically seeing about 450-600mbps up and down (typically more in the 450ish range).
