Double for $20 Oh man, I can feel that tug. I probably wouldn't be able to say no.

Yes, well my bill is already high for TV & phone!
That would be great wouldn't it if and when they increase the upload speed. I am so tempted to pay $20 for increasing my Internet speed to 400Mbps....as...I could try it and then see how well I like it or not. One can always cancel it at anytime.
Now I am sounding like @xrobwx71 LOL

Do I really need it, no I don't but I did get it at a good price about $70.00CAD in a package deal with TV services. Rogers Internet Plans | Rogers Canada I have my 2 cell phones on a Business account it's cheaper that way.That would be great wouldn't it if and when they increase the upload speed.

True Daniel..I do not really need it as I am not in a race or in a business am I?. My internet handles all my computers anyways. Speed is a power thing...something that I like to have in my computers. More Ram, Faster Graphics, CPU, & bigger SSD's..etc.. etc.. nice to have but your right do I really need it?
Your package deal sounds pretty great!

Holy Crap batman! I assume that you're paying for 1 GB speed. If so what does that cost you?Consistent here!

disable your firewall to run the test. When the test is over, just re-enable it.I haven't been able to run speedtest for a long time. I always get an error when it tries to do the upload.

$79.99 CAD and it's because I have been with them for many years and have 3 products with them. I would love to see the upload around 100 to 250Mbps but 30 is Max for now! And I don't get these speeds via Wi-Fi as i get around 500Mbps but connect via Ethernet to use my full Gigabit service.
I switched from Comcast to WOW and dropped my TV and phone to just internet, The 1Gig tier $80 per month, but I could never realize more than 460 Mbps. They came out about 4 times, shuffled their feet, climbed some ladders, nothing changed on my end so I downgraded to their 500/25 tier. I'm paying about $50 per month with all the fees for just the internet. I was paying Comcast $290 per month for TV, Internet 350/25, & Phone. They can have it and choke on it.
I'll run a test soon when I'm home.

Yep...I was in the same boat a few years back. We moved and dumped the package deal and just went with internet at the new place. I've been using an antenna for 2 years now for local TV and since doing that, I've not looked back once. Best decision I made.
It would have to be on my router because when I try to run it on an android tablet, I get the same error. I assume it isn't a Windows problem.
Let me see if I'm able to do that. I have a very,very old router.
I disabled the firewall in the router and I get the same error. I disabled Windows firewall and I get the same error. Upload simply errors out and shoots up that box.

Yep. I was paying for Gig-speed but was only seeing at best 460 most times 240ish. I downgrade to 500/25 and I get this. I'm good with it.
A little closer to me.
