I came from Cable vision, and now I have 75/75 Fios Quantum. I used to get 20-25 Mbps down/15 up, but now I am getting 15 down and 7.5 up.
Inconsistently, I sometimes get higher. as high as 40/10, but never much better than that.
- Hardware is not the problem. I booted the same PC (HP Compaq 8200 Elite CMT, 16 Gb RAM), under Knoppix 7.4.2 and I got as high as 92/75 on a speed test (non-java version and www.speedof.me)
- When I boot up normally under Windows 7, I get usually around 15/7.5, but sometimes higher, as high as 40/10 Mbps down/up.
- When I booted into safe mode with networking, i just now got 43.95/9.97 from speedtest.net
- Same session with speakeasy/speedtest 34.24/8.60
- Same session with speedtest.verizon.net 29.57/12.40
- Same session unders speedof.me 45.35/1.98 (yes, that was not a typo. I only got 1.98 Mbps, and the next try I got 2.10 Mbps).
All of this makes no sense, except to say that the hardware is obviously not the problem since it runs fine under Knoppix, and gives me wonderful speed.
Something is going on under windows, and verizon Premium Support could not find anything, nor think of anything to try.

Please open the command prompt and run the following commands. Paste the output to a post for us.
netsh int tcp show global
netsh int tcp show heuristics
netsh int tcp show subinterfaces
In addition, what antimalware or antiviral software do you use on your computer?
Is your PC's power plan set to power saver or battery saver? I recommend using at least the Balanced setting.
Is your NIC set to autonegotiate mode?

It was set for 100 Mbps/Full Duplex, I nos set it to Auto Negotiate - is that what you meant me to do?
Thanks sofar.

mout annoyingly, it would throttle down during a session, be it a backup, or a video conference. Eventually it would choke. That choking started after switch to vz, or so it seemed. In any case at first I blamed the network, but testing indicated I was getting as high as 80/90. Still, even under Knoppix, running from dvd, i.e. from memory, so no h/d involved. I got the same behavior, though always with higher starting speed. Might look like starting at 90/45, or sometimes 90/80, but in the course of 30-45 minutes throttling down to choking point. After all of that, failing HDD is the only explanation? I do not get it, except to say it was the only cause I could find, sofar...
