I'm confused by my DSL. I currently just switched from cable to DSL. the cost was less and the speeds are greater. Cable I was paying for 4mbs down and I would average anywhere from 3 - 1 mbs downloads. Whenever it dropped down to 2 or 1 my streaming netflix movies became unwatchable. So a friend told me about DSL and since it's a subscriber line you don't share the line like cable so I should be a steady feed. With my DSL I am paying for 7.1 mb downloads but average about 4 and down to 1 during peak times. Although if i tie into my modem it tells me it's running at 6.7ish but and internet speed test I do tells me I'm running much slower. Does this make sense to anyone. I don't see how my modem can be running at one speed but my downloads are another speed. I shut down all other computers and items at my house. Tried running straight into computer instead of router but still have the same issues??? Any information will be greatyl appreciated.
