Ookla Speedtest App WRT1900AC reliable?

It's frustrating to use WRT1900AC speedtest.  First, sometimes it loads up, other times, it's not. It takes a lot of time for the application to respond.  Then, comes the unreliable speed test.

Linksys WRT1900AC registration constantly speed test my connection as a 1 - 3Mbps for download speed and 0, 5Mbps in upload. This prompted me to complain about my ISP, and in turn, they admitted that they might have a few problems themselves.

But when I use the Web (speedtest.net) Ookla speed test, the airspeed was until my ISP advertising (25Mbps both from top to bottom).

Basically, a test showed 27Mbps, the other about 9 to 27 times slower to download. While the differences between the result of the upload is a staggering 54 times.

Why such a huge difference? Anyone know the same thing I do?

SpeedTest on the router is... not completely reliable pants!

Execution of a connected local network client for a real measure of your WAN speed.  If you run it on WiFi, the results may well be affected by problems in the Marvell WiFi drivers.

  • WRT1900ACS 8 x slower than EA old

    Put my new WRT1900ACS in the exact same task that my router Linksys EA one came, 5 feet away Samsung Galaxy S6 is showing 866Mbps,-34 dBm, the signal strength, channel 153.

    However, it is only really get 41 Mbps to the top and 25 Mbps down and measured by OOKlA Speedtest (Internet) Android and Android WIFI Speedtest (wired LAN PC).

    With my old router EA, I was getting 150 Mbps on Speedtest OOKIA - max my modem can do.  I will now have the floor as an AP and sat down next to the WRT1900ACS give me 25Mbps down, EA upstairs always gives me 65 Mbps to a good 100 feet away and through a floor.

    They have very similar web interfaces, so I copied all the router settings of EA, including forcing them channels he used, and finally even the settings under advanced - wireless.html.

    It's not interference or a channel number, given that EA got 8 x speed sitting in the same place on the same channel.  Prioritization of media is set to OFF.  List of devices shows phone connected on the 5 GHz band.

    Any ideas before I RMA it?

    So, I 'solved', kind of?  Switching personal WPA2 only to WPA2/WPA mixed personal my up shoots and low rate of 400 MB/s.  Return to personal WPA2 only blocking their return to up to 40 Mbps to the top and 25 Mbit/s down.

    Exactly backwards of the majority of the recommendations.  To be clear:

    WPA2 only: 40Mbps up/25 Mbps down

    WPA2/WPA mixed: 400 bit/s upwards and down.

    It is with a phone Samsung Galaxy 6, so I don't think it's a matter of the phone is not not about to manage WPA2.

  • Risk of blackBerry 10 Android apps

    Hello

    yesterday, I received an email that there is a security hole when you use Android applications.

    Unfortunately, it is a German page, but I think you get what it says when you translate

    with google translate:

    Basically, he said that applications can read direct contacts of the business part of the phone.

    The security flaw is fixed, but my provider for example has not released the update again...

    So, if you use 10.2.1.537 or lower, I would Setup not all Android Apps.

    What do you think about this?

    Concerning

    The threat is low if you stick to the known apps and reliable sources.

    Although it was reported as a security risk, I heard no Android applications that currently use this hole.

    But if it's something, you are concerned about yes I recommend waiting for the update.

    There is also a policy of BES ' security > Apps access to the work of personal Contacts "which can be set to None which stops all applications personal BlackBerry and Android to access business contacts side.

  • As soon as I rent a movie, the screen indicates «ready to play within 72 hours!» What will happen?

    After I rent a movie from iTunes, the screen keeps loading and shows "ready to play within 72 hours!"  Time keeps changing!  No one knows how to fix?  I have cold it starts twice!

    Sounds like a slow internet connection.

    Do you know how fast your internet is supposed to be?

    Is this a new AppleTV 4? -If so get Ookla free speedtest app to measure your connection speed on AppleTV 4 directly, if not try on a computer or other device:

    http://www.Speedtest.NET/

    For almost instant playback, you need to do:

    2.5 Mbit/s in Standard definition

    6 Mbit/s in 720 p high definition

    8 Mbps for high definition 1080 p

    .. slower .all and AppleTV has "buffer" by downloading some of the film first to avoid the power button during playback.

    ITunes rentals are fixed quality, while Netflix and other often use adaptive rate connections reduce the quality for internet slower and they will often play immediately when an AppleTv must buffer.

    If you keep restarting it may start from scratch every time - and also using AppleTv for other functions, while the wait could wipe out any content in the buffer (it was ATV 2 and 3).

    There are other possible causes, but the first thing to look at is the speed of your connection.

  • Slow download with WRT1200AC/SB6121 Modem/Comcast Internet speeds

    I recently bought the router WRT 1200 AC to complete my wifi at home.  I also have a new laptop Windows 10.  When you are connected wireless network, I ran the test of speed of Comcast.  Results are usually the following:

    IPv4 - 2 MB/s download, 5mbps download

    IPv6 - 30 MB/s download, 6 Mbit/s upload

    I also connected to my wireless on my laptop and run the OOKLA speedtest application.  With this app I usually get similar results to the IPv4 of the comcast speed test.  Sometimes I get the faster speeds of IPv6.

    When I have a wired connection to the router I get download speeds of 30mbps.

    My question is why can not I get slow speeds of download IPv4 and what can be done to improve the situation?

    Thank you

  • BlackBerry 10 Adobe Flash on the new OS

    Just upgraded to 10.3.1.1565. When I tried to use the Ookla speed test it says I need Adobe flash. I watched ideas as go into settings and turn it on but it is not there at all. I tried to download it but get a message that it is not available for my browser or OS... any ideas?

    Flash on mobile devices is no longer supported by Adobe. That's why he disappeared. In my view, that there is an Ookla Speedtest available in the Android app store app.

  • Internet MacBook becomes very slow

    • Tried a third modem/router: a friend gave me his modem router to try and the same issue. (In both cases I had my ISP to update the MAC address)
    • Tried other devices: I tried the connectivity to other devices (iphone & ipad) and found no problem. Speedtest app appears 32mbps to the low and 5 Mbps + constantly.
    • Tried another browser: was using firefox, I tried Chrome - same question. In addition, any application on my computer using the web runs slowly, no browsers only.
    • Tried to connect to the Internet through direct ethernet modem: no improvement
    • Tried to restart the computer and the modem/router: it is 7 + times for two days with no change

  • Best placement of router?

    My Airport Extreme is located on one side of my two-story home, in an office on the first floor. I have an Airport Express located downstairs, to the other side of the House.  My wifi coverage was uneven at the bottom. I recently read a study suggesting that a router should be ideally located (not possible for me) and that the router is on the ground at least four or five feet.  I tried this and now they have about five feet above the ground.

    My question is, the coverage would be even better, if I placed the higher router?

    So far the Speedtest app on my iPhone show my download & much more quickly than what I used to get upload.

    Thank you

    Wireless extension across the diagonal of a House of two floors... through as a very solid material is possible always will lead to worst possible wireless. Lifting the Express to get over some of the furniture is a little help... upper which will probably meet diminishing returns.

    The best way to solve the problem is the use of ethernet.

    If your House is large and difficult then just ethernet to the room directly under the location of the extreme and put another extreme in there... Buy a second hand gen5 AE on ebay etc... It is far superior to other express. Set up roaming to the network.

  • Why is the internet on my Apple TV 4 speed faster on wifi and ethernet?

    Hello

    I have an Apple TV 4. I tested my internet speed using unit SpeedTest app. When I connect Apple TV to my router with an ethernet cable (5th), my download speed is 45 Mbps. When I unplug the ethernet cable and use the wifi, the download speed is 89 Mbps. Can someone explain why this could be? It should be the other way around.

    Thank you
    Ryan

    Hello

    I think that this may be due the port ethernet ATV 4 being only 10 / 100 Mbit/s. Your WiFi network is probably give at speed higher than 100 Mbit/s, allowing a faster data rate.

  • Guest WiFi network much slower than normal on the network

    Speedtests leave a device attached to the 5 GHz wireless guest network are much slower than when the same device is connected to the normal 5 GHz WiFi.

    I measured reproducible all about 7ms 18/10 down on the network of comments and 1ms 320/250 Mbps on the normal network. Same place, same camera, same speedtest app, same test server.

    Similar results of multiple devices (laptop, Windows, iPhone 6 s). No change after a reboot. QoS is off. Firmware is 1.0.6.28_1.1.83.

    What could be the reason? I don't think that I had the same problems a few months ago, but I has not changed settings since then, except for the upgrade of the firmware when a new version appeared.

    Thanks for your advice.

  • Cannot start Acer aspire V3 - 571G "scan and repair drive (E): 27%.

    Hello! I have an Acer aspire V3 - 571G. But I have a problem now, when I boot, the screen with the Acer logo appears, with the message: "Analysis and repair Drive (E): 27% Complete" and it never moves from 27 percent. So I unplugged the computer sometimes and sometimes a message asking me to restore to an earlier version. Once I tried to restore, a screen with the Acer logo appears. Before I restarted the computer and had this problem, I downloaded a scanning software from disk on the Ookla Speedtest site, but since he cannot solve all the problems, I downloaded another similar software by AVG Netherlands BV and fixed all the problems. Then they said that I needed to fix something in the Device Manager (3 of my miniports were not work) so I looked on the net for a solution, that I followed and uninstalled all 3 miniports. After the AVG scan, it asked me to restart, which I did later and could not get more in Windows. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    I finally solved this problem! After starting, press F9, and then click "restore." Then you will need to be patient and start the computer normally will be! Here it helps other people with this problem too.

  • How to check if a custom Attachment Manager is installed

    Hey guys,.

    I have critical app run for our sales outside the field people and it uses an Attachment Manager custom that autoruns to the startup of the phone.  I want to check that the Manager is registered when they launch the actual application, so I can re - charge Manager if necessary.  Is there a way to do this?  Is it still necessary?  I am a fairly defensive programmer and you want to make my apps as reliable as possible, and as I said it is a critical application that relies on the Attachment Manager.

    Thank you

    Wade

    There is no API for this query.  After recording with AttachmentHandlerManager your application can write some sort of object of success in the duration of BlackBerry store.  When your application starts it could check for this object.

    Please note that the store of runtime is allowed out when is reset, so if the user resets their device the custom AttachmentHandler and runtime database object would disappear.
