speedtes.net..... recent reset yields surprise

[mikmaze]

Hadn't thought much lately about the internet speed, but got a tip from a friend that said Optimum had boosted speed to its customers, but to see the increase you had to re set your modem. Simply unplug, wait a minute, pug it back in, then run speed test to see any possible gains. Well this thing had been running along at about 45 to 50, after the reset, this is what I got:

Speedtest.net - My Results




So well worth the minute wait and reset.

Kinda tough to find a decently faster mirror for some reason. Had one that would peak at 350Mbit for a few seconds then fall off.
