Comcast Business speeds

Post by mprusse »

Our non-stake center building finally graduated from old DSL to Comcast Business cable internet. I was expecting something considerably faster than the DSL speeds we were getting but now we’re pulling 90 Mbps down & up. Is that the max other buildings are getting with Comcast Business internet?

I don't have any experience with Comcast installed at church buildings, but 90 Mbps sounds super slow. I'd expect at least 300 Mbps, even on their older coax network.

Was this test run when the building was occupied? I'd suggest running it on an unoccupied building when the network is idle.

Test was run when the building was unoccupied from a laptop plugged directly into the switch.

Decided to plug directly into the Comcast modem. That was the trick resulting in 710 Mbps down and 352 Mbps up. So either the switch is bad or the firewall is causing the issue somehow. FM is replacing the switch first.
