[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1603573, member: 24160"] On top of doing a speed test, you need to do the packet loss test, i.e. the PingTest at speedtest.net. You will need to enable java to run that test in order to get results for the packet loss portion. Just went round and round with this where the packet loss test was consistently indicating 58% to 72% loss via wifi and 90+% packet loss via ethernet while the speed test portion was still getting better speed than my plan. My ISP showed no packet loss from their end to the modem. Finally had them come out to do a test here - with the tech saying there was nothing wrong but changed out their modem anyway. The new modem on the same test shows 0% packet loss and my intermittent connection problems I lived with for at least a couple of months have disappeared. [/QUOTE]
