that is very weird; I get faster upload speeds than download speeds, although I am connected through another router, so not sure if that affects things.. I pay for gig internet speed, and get about 500 megs up and down directly to the Orbis, and around 300 down, and 350 up when I do speed test on my phones or tablets..

Below is what I pulled from my home hub just there now, I would perform a speed test but its really slow and doesn't seem to do anything except check my user details constantly. Thanks in advance for anything solutions or advice its greatly appreciated . edit: just managed a speed test. Download speed achieved during the test was - 201 Kbps Feb 19, 2012 · Download: 24 Mbps; Upload: 4.5 Mbps; Laptop. Download: 0.65 Mbps; Upload: 4.5 Mbps; iPhone. Download: 0.58 Mbps; Upload: 4.4 Mbps; Yikes! My laptop and iPhone download speed were more than 30 times slower than my desktop’s download speed! On the other hand, the upload speed was roughly the same on all devices. What the hell was going on Apr 14, 2014 · The download speed is still a zippy 57 Mb/s, but now the upload speed is fast too, at 11 Mb/s, or nearly 70x faster than what it was before. Woohoo! Woohoo! I hope you found the post helpful. @marcbobrien . only thing i would point out in them speed tests is the speedtest app on IOS is very unrelible if you look at your own 3g upload test result that is impossible result you can't get 4mb upload on 3G (it should be around 1.8-2.3mb), and on the 3G result for download speed the Burst speed at the start of the speed test messed up the result (it should of been about half the speed on May 25, 2011 · If you’re like most of the rest of us, the speed at which you upload is way slower than the speed at which you download. That makes sense if you think of the Internet as a publishing medium, with most of its participants as recipients. It makes much less sense if you think of the Internet as a participatory medium. Sep 30, 2010 · Not really any problems. Many fiber and commercial based internet plans have equivalent upload and download speed tiers. And download speed is the vast majority of almost any application of internet usage so that's why it's slower, there's just much traffic both in your own network, ISP delivery networks, and the servers you are contacting.

Feb 20, 2014 Aug 15, 2018 · Add to this that upload channels are usually narrower than download channels (roughly six Mhz for down and three Mhz for up), and you’re looking at even lower relative speeds, which is why a four-to-one channel ratio doesn’t usually get you a four-to-one speed ratio. A twenty Mbps download speed will likely have less than 5 Mbps for upload. The download speed on your computer may differ from your upload speed as a result of several internal or external influences. The presence of spyware or a virus can slow your Internet download connection speed. The amount of memory your computer has or the hard disk space available also can affect download speed. Nov 14, 2018 · If your upload speed is slightly faster than your download speed, it’s not worth worrying about. On a symmetric Internet connection where the two are supposed to be the same, I expect to see them within about 10 percent of one another, and if download slightly outpaces upload, it’s not hurting anything. Jul 14, 2017 · The speed of a network is denoted using a bit-per-second notation. Originally, networks were so slow that their speed was measured in just bits, but as network speeds increased, we started measuring internet speed in kilobits per second (remember 56k modems? That meant 56 kilobits per second), and now, megabits per second.
