View Full Version : 1gb purefibre internet not that fast - what's wrong here?

A week ago I upgraded from fibre 150 to 1gb. I get that 1gb is theoretical and that network congestion can impact speed. However, I've checked on ookla multiple times a day for the last week and the fastest down speed I get on a lan connection to my T3200m gateway is about 200mbits. This is what I just got from inside the gateway firmware speedtest

So, after a week of this I'm not satisfied that it might just be that the network is busy at a given moment. I'd expect higher performance at least some of the time.

Anyone have suggestions on what is going on here? might the gateway be the problem? is it something else? what's the best way to go about trying to resolve either on the hardware/config front or in dealing with telus themselves?

Cheers for help!
Rob
