Are you guys plugged directly into your modem for those speed tests or running through a switch or wi-fi?
I'm running through a GbE switch and a Firebox x1000 [Coffee] The X1000 is wire speed 100-300Mb/s.Quote:

You should check your speed with something hardwired to rule out any WiFi or QoS issues affecting your results.Quote:

Had problems early on with QoS and packet loss on Comcast's end, so that is disabled.

You're getting the wonderful 7000 miles speed test too!

I did a reboot a couple of weeks ago and noticed that my SB 6120 took new firmware at that time. I rebooted this morning and didn't see another download. I did not perform a speed test before this morning's reboot because I knew what I was getting before any speed bump.
You can't go 7000 miles in 11 or 12 milliseconds. The mileage is bogus.Quote:
