Interesting. Got 65 on Fast and 75 on Speedtest... somethings fucky.
gearsmith
fast.com needs to show upload and latency as well.
twistedcopper
I work for an isp. Keep in mind that speeds are only guaranteed through Ethernet out of the modem/router, WiFi speed are never guaranteed
MetalBuddha
You will get different results on different sites due to how close their servers are to you.

What about Google's Speed Test? Is that prioritized as well by ISP?
Minkaf
or ovh.net
ZeroMMZ
I got 25 on Speedtest and 11 on Fast.com.
WhitePhoenix
Stop using Speedtest. Use DSLReports' speedtest. http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest - uses HTML5 and doesn't use Flash. 1/2
It's also a broadband news source & it's not nice to ISP news, so there's less "prioritizing" of traffic going to them vs speedtest 2/2
VeggieZ
490 on Fast, 940 on Speedtest. Thanks AT&T..
worldsokayestspeler
Wow i wonder if they actually just double it
Kenona
In Norway, i get the same result on both and its higher than what i pay for. We offer sympathy to the Americans in these harsh times.

The difference is you live in a civilized country. People in the US do not and likely will not again until we’re invaded and annexed.

So you mean to tell me this was all done under net neutrality? Impossible!
AspieGamer
I live in Canada, both are the same.
Absolarix
Same. I'm using Telus. You?
FabledSins
I got 100 on Fast and 97 on speedtest...
skorve
That's probably within a normal margin of error.
Templarfreak
Yeah, that seems reasonable. You can't expect max speed at all times, that's a pretty safe range for it to be in to be accurate.
youareandshallalwaysbemyfuzzy
I got 66 of fast.com and 45 on speedtest.net .... Somethings off.
Rip901
How many times did you run them?
Twice each
AlbertaPrime
So, what's to stop them from prioritizing traffic going to fast.net to get the same inflated results?
or fast.com
Valanaz
Nothing. But it is run through netflix servers, so they would also have to prioritize netflix.
varesa
Apparently the test is not run against fast.com but the netflix video distribution servers. The ISP can't easily know what the connection is
yup, both actually open a connection to nflxvideo.com for the download
admiralawesome4213
I heard that they Netflix did this to stop throttling from them. Basically they can't fastlane this site like speedtest 1/2
Without fastlaning Netflix itself or they can basically sue. So it wasn't for our benefit. It was for theirs. They got fastlaned. 2/2
Fahargo
It still is our benefit to not have cunt ISP's decide which services we get to use our internet "that we already paid for" on.
VeinyFleshTrumpet
THOSE PRICK SONS OF BITCHES I SHOULDVE KNOWN MY 300MBPS WHILE NETFLIX IS SHOWING IN 188P A PLOT
methos343
It's your caplock that's slowing you down its a known issue.
GreedyWildcard
Don’t just compare to advertised speeds, compare to Speedtest.net - you likely won’t see 300Mbps with either
IAmThePrincess
Why do you trust Netflix anymore than the others...???
Mithi
ehm, because Netflix has no interest in throttling your connection but an interest in making you aware if yours is?
Hmm, Netflix, who has a vested interest in maintaining NN, is looking to tell you if your ISP is throttling your speed... Biased...???

I think my browser artificially inflates my speed as there's no way my phone data is this good: https://imgur.com/rbtHLfj
tried with a different browser and got https://imgur.com/JiUTQ4D which i think is really more the speed i get
cousteau
I just checked and got 28. I still can't believe it. We live in the future.
JessieJanson
Most services advertise Mb's or consumers confuse Mb for MB which are two different things. a Mb is 1/8th of a MB, or you need 8 Mb's to 1/2
to be one MB. All data is dealt with in MB except internet speeds because they want you to think you are getting more then you are. 2/3
Additional info. MB is MegaByte. Mb is Megabit.
StormSaxon
Won't they just prioritize any speed test website?
bpetersen
I think it's on same IP address as neyflix
FineousTPushbottom
By doing that, they would have to prioritize netflix because that's where the speedtest website is at. 1/2
So if they do prioritize the speed test site on netflix, they are prioritizing netflix which is a better experience for the consumer.2/2
Ribrianne
Not quite. Video stream itself is probably hosted on a different domain/ip, so ISPs can just throttle one but not the other.
What they can do instead is boost speed for the first couple of megabytes for each new IP and then your speedtest would be off the charts.
true, it is not as smart as made it to seem or Netflix tried to make it
PuzzleGif
I like SourceForge's speedtest: https://sourceforge.net/speedtest/ - it gives way more information, like packet loss and jitter.
AlcoholicsAnonymousBYO
"There was unrecoverable error while running the latency test." Still, showed 14.9 while fast showed a flat 20 .. interesting gap.
Vectron
Was going to post this. Sourceforge's speedtest is probably the most comprehensive web based connection test available. Shit's good, yo.
domestomp
back in the day I had to post my results as part of a raiding guild app in Warcraft lol
RussianBlueJay
Still got 80 download and 22 on fast. I have a feeling my ISP is inflating that site as well.
Kodaxmax
Yeh i hate when my clients quote speedtest and similar not understanding that a single reading of their line speed is useless
sweetnaivety
holy crap, this site says I'm getting over 350mbps when most tests say I get around 250.. and we pay for 300.
Cox is faring decently with a gigabit connection - 750Mbps on fast. vs ~9">com vs ~9a> vs ~9">com vs ~9a>00Mbps on speedtest.net /a/DKxNh
TechPriest97
Where do you ducking g live, I get 1.8 on a good day
To answer more directly, living in Oklahoma City. The metropolitan area has about 1.2 million in population.
DotSlashNatalie
I think a lot of ISPs offer gigabit over coax now. For the ridiculous price of $300+/month you can get gigabit from Comcrap.
Eonymia
Yay for Finland. I could get Gigabit for 39.90€. 100mbps is included in my rent.
Cox offers fiber @ $89/mo for 2 years (intro rate, then price rape) in VERY few places, definitely not the norm for speeds here. (1/2)
Google fiber offers those speeds at about that price with no “intro” pricing in the cities they’ve rolled out in so far. (2/2)
Caitot
What is stopping an isp from giving this new site priority like they do with speedtest.net?
oyoyoyyyyy
Then they cannot throttle netflix traffic
But they are set up as two separate websites, even then its possible for an isp to give priority to single page of a multi page website.
VladLong
They only appear as different websites to a human. to the ISP they look like the same thing. look up what DNS is
that is much more difficult however. It is easy to change routing based on IP or AS. Packet to 54.72.0.0/13? That's netflix->slow it. (1/?)
But if the same servers host the sites, now the ISP has to look inside the packet payload which is many layers deeper on the network stack
On top of that if fast.com actually connects to the netflix video distribution servers for the test data, it's impossible to know what the
monodop
Isps arent necessarily responsible for your speed to netflix. Their rates apply up until their edge routers. The actual internet is the /1
Not really something they have huge control over. Congestion, outages, traffic, routing and so on can cause slowdown. So while this is a /2
Good data point, it isnt actual proof of wrongdoing. I dont know how you would actually prove throttling, or if that even makes sense to do.
several test every day at different times? With enough data, the average from both sites should be quite similar. If not, well...
No. The distance can be different, more congested route, or the servers can just be slow. And hundreds of other factors
You could compare against a user of another ISP in the same area. If they're constantly getting 2x the speed you know something's wrong
superbob201
In most cases, the slowest link between you and Netflix should be the connection between you and the ISP.
There's plenty of potential places for bottlenecks. Maybe netflix has poor connections to your local area. Maybe your dns is poorly setup
With all the work Netflix has put in to integrate itself in the infrastructure of the internet, those should only rarely be the bottleneck.
HuntingtonBrown
This site confirmed that while paying for gigabyte service we were only getting 200mbps max. A calm yet stern call to Comcast followed.
pbiersac
How did the call to Comcast work out?
Replied to first comment
Somehow missed it. Thanks for the follow up!

wekilledbambi03
Lemme guess. You needed a new router? Everyone assumes their routers are good for years. But speeds are much faster than a 5 year old router
The original tech didnt set it up correctly apparently...
my laptop is 8 years old now? wifi gets about 40% of the speed. I just moved and bought a cable since my router is close. big difference
OddOod
I had to get a laptop cooling pad for my Archer C7, worked a charm. Now I have google wifi and it's glorious
CrispyNougat
You may just need a new modem. It requires a DOCSIS 3.1 modem. Some DOCSIS 3.0 modems can do it, but those typically top out at 200Mbps
fucking 3.1 surfboard was 225 when I bought it. .5Gbps is nice tho
anarkos
This is what I was going to say, cause I got gigabit this year but my old modem capped at 200.

JapAnus
Shit, gotta do this while I still remember.
Awesome. Think I’ll be doing something similar.
Be polite and understanding but firm with them and the rep usually wants to help you out. They thanked me for my civility.
parsious
and of course if your ISP was giving traffic to speedtest sites priority dont you think a post like this may get fast.com added to the list?
khora
That's what Netflix is hoping for. fast.com is just loading video data from netflix.
yes but you don't watch videos using the fast.com name so the change of routing would only be effect requests to fast and not video traffic
The test data isn't loaded from fast.com. It's loaded from ntflxvideo.net.
yes .. and you still access the site using the Fast.com URI in order to get the speed test page.
The ISP only know that you have visited fast.com just before loading data from netflix.
DancesWithDancesWithDancesWithDancesWithWolverines
fam the data is coming from netflix servers, if they want to prioritize it they gotta prioritize netflix servers
OkButWhyWereTheyFilming
Read the full post. Since Netflix hosts the site, they could do that, but it'd mean they'd have to then give priority traffic to Netflix.
you do understand you can prioritize traffic by target domain name right.. oh this is to fast.com use this path, oh netflix you get path X
I did not, thank you for clarifying. I was sort of wondering this myself.
yep .. you can base routing decisiosn on almost anything source, destination, protocol used, and those are the common ones
They can't because the internet doesn't work this way https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System
However that gets more difficult than just prioritizing by IP or AS if the fast.com site is hosted on the same servers/addresses than video
yep, but you really think companies that want net neutrality gone wouldn't pull this stunt and from a quick look IP the way to filter this.
ImProbablyJoking
Fast.com: *Slower than what you pay for* - Me: wtf - ISP: We don't recognize or accept the results of Fast.com as an accurate test of speed.
TheGame21x
I just use it as a barometer to see when my connection is slower than I paid for. When it’s slow, I call and complain. I don’t mention Fast.
KeeleonOhms
And then you wait on hold for 2 hours before getting "accidentally" disconnected?
Corrodias
Naturally, I get 60 mbps to my local ISP test site and 30 at best anywhere else. I should file a complaint.
DixonHillPrivateEye
I was gonna say, it's not like they'll do much if you call Comcast up and complain
FuckityFucker
No but if enough people complain its an issue for comcast. But its great for the rest of the world where we have more than one option

aristera
Litteraly the first time I've heard that. I greatly question if its remotely true.
76000BatteryLlamas
How can your ISP affect how fast the connection is to anywhere outside their network? And why is that their responsibility?
Your connection to a source is only as fast as the slowest link, but in the majority of cases, that slowest link should be between you & ISP
cca220v
when the data reaches isp they know where it came from and can delay the packet or simply drop it
NotHAL
On the other hand, they can't make it any faster. Not defending them, just pointing out possibility that target server could be overloaded..
it is their responsibility to not tamper with your data
SpiderDetective
Did you mean: FAKE NEWS
notbeau
You pay for peak speed and that usually is only guaranteed to their connection point not to the rest of the internet
ContinuallySenseless
In Finland, the connection has to be at least 70% of the advertised speed. Otherwise the ISP has some explaining to do. To authorities. ->
We have a fairly competitive market (3 major ISP's) and lot of government oversight on quality, so happy place on that account.
yobego
The USA has very little major oversight, 1 major isp in most areas but they claim "competition" since you can get satellite internet 1/3
and say that actually meeting the standards would cost "too much" money so their paid politicians just ignore the regulations 3/3
These same companies also go through and collect millions each year for "improvement" and when regulations are in place, they go through 2/3
I mean, Google, OHV and SpeedTest all put me at 500+ while Fast said I was getting 300
isilzha
I like when a client (on Comast) was having speed issues and they kept insisting to use speedtest -->
2) In their own FAQ, speedtest even says they ignore the slowest 30% of the test. So Comcast tried to "give in" by sending me to... -->
3) Megapath's speedtest page. I groaned, and said "that's just the same thing." "No it's not, it's megapath." -->
4) Me: "uh huh.. what does it say in the bottom right?" "...Powered by.. oo..k..l..a.... oh." The conn was unstable. Speedtest.net hid it
this smells like a netflix marketing stunt
Imnotapotatoe
Why is this getting down voted? It's not only true, but also smart of the company if it is considering what's going on

lobstasalad9095
if your show starts getting all F'd up, I bet people complain to Netflix first. And if it aint THEIR fault, possibly its the ISPs speed.

It's relative to what speed you're paying for. If you're paying for 100 and getting 50, then you're not getting what you're paying for.

Fast is only at 100? Concerning.
Maybe Fast caps it as it doesnt need more for a max 4k stream? Google dosnt cap anything.

Damn. I pay almost 40 EUR for mine.
well that is just internet, the contract i got it from requries to also pay for TV, which makes it 35 EUR for 10Mb/s + TV
Dunno where you are in Europe, but that’s stupid slow. 110 and 105 Mbps here in Norway.

I got 25 on Speedtest and 11 on Fast.com.
WhitePhoenix
Stop using Speedtest. Use DSLReports' speedtest. http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest - uses HTML5 and doesn't use Flash. 1/2
WhitePhoenix
It's also a broadband news source & it's not nice to ISP news, so there's less "prioritizing" of traffic going to them vs speedtest 2/2
VeggieZ
490 on Fast, 940 on Speedtest. Thanks AT&T..
worldsokayestspeler
Wow i wonder if they actually just double it
Kenona
In Norway, i get the same result on both and its higher than what i pay for. We offer sympathy to the Americans in these harsh times.

The difference is you live in a civilized country. People in the US do not and likely will not again until we’re invaded and annexed.

I got 100 on Fast and 97 on speedtest...
skorve
That's probably within a normal margin of error.
Templarfreak
Yeah, that seems reasonable. You can't expect max speed at all times, that's a pretty safe range for it to be in to be accurate.
youareandshallalwaysbemyfuzzy
I got 66 of fast.com and 45 on speedtest.net .... Somethings off.
Rip901
How many times did you run them?
youareandshallalwaysbemyfuzzy
Twice each
AlbertaPrime
So, what's to stop them from prioritizing traffic going to fast.net to get the same inflated results?
AlbertaPrime
or fast.com
Valanaz
Nothing. But it is run through netflix servers, so they would also have to prioritize netflix.
varesa
Apparently the test is not run against fast.com but the netflix video distribution servers. The ISP can't easily know what the connection is
varesa
yup, both actually open a connection to nflxvideo.com for the download
admiralawesome4213
I heard that they Netflix did this to stop throttling from them. Basically they can't fastlane this site like speedtest 1/2
admiralawesome4213
Without fastlaning Netflix itself or they can basically sue. So it wasn't for our benefit. It was for theirs. They got fastlaned. 2/2
Fahargo
It still is our benefit to not have cunt ISP's decide which services we get to use our internet "that we already paid for" on.

It's your caplock that's slowing you down its a known issue.
GreedyWildcard
Don’t just compare to advertised speeds, compare to Speedtest.net - you likely won’t see 300Mbps with either
IAmThePrincess
Why do you trust Netflix anymore than the others...???
Mithi
ehm, because Netflix has no interest in throttling your connection but an interest in making you aware if yours is?
IAmThePrincess
Hmm, Netflix, who has a vested interest in maintaining NN, is looking to tell you if your ISP is throttling your speed... Biased...???

JessieJanson
Most services advertise Mb's or consumers confuse Mb for MB which are two different things. a Mb is 1/8th of a MB, or you need 8 Mb's to 1/2
JessieJanson
to be one MB. All data is dealt with in MB except internet speeds because they want you to think you are getting more then you are. 2/3
JessieJanson
Additional info. MB is MegaByte. Mb is Megabit.
StormSaxon
Won't they just prioritize any speed test website?
bpetersen
I think it's on same IP address as neyflix
FineousTPushbottom
By doing that, they would have to prioritize netflix because that's where the speedtest website is at. 1/2
FineousTPushbottom
So if they do prioritize the speed test site on netflix, they are prioritizing netflix which is a better experience for the consumer.2/2
Ribrianne
Not quite. Video stream itself is probably hosted on a different domain/ip, so ISPs can just throttle one but not the other.
Ribrianne
What they can do instead is boost speed for the first couple of megabytes for each new IP and then your speedtest would be off the charts.
mimomisu
true, it is not as smart as made it to seem or Netflix tried to make it
PuzzleGif
I like SourceForge's speedtest: https://sourceforge.net/speedtest/ - it gives way more information, like packet loss and jitter.
AlcoholicsAnonymousBYO
"There was unrecoverable error while running the latency test." Still, showed 14.9 while fast showed a flat 20 .. interesting gap.
Vectron
Was going to post this. Sourceforge's speedtest is probably the most comprehensive web based connection test available. Shit's good, yo.

holy crap, this site says I'm getting over 350mbps when most tests say I get around 250.. and we pay for 300.

GreedyWildcard
To answer more directly, living in Oklahoma City. The metropolitan area has about 1.2 million in population.
DotSlashNatalie
I think a lot of ISPs offer gigabit over coax now. For the ridiculous price of $300+/month you can get gigabit from Comcrap.
Eonymia
Yay for Finland. I could get Gigabit for 39.90€. 100mbps is included in my rent.
GreedyWildcard
Cox offers fiber @ $89/mo for 2 years (intro rate, then price rape) in VERY few places, definitely not the norm for speeds here. (1/2)
GreedyWildcard
Google fiber offers those speeds at about that price with no “intro” pricing in the cities they’ve rolled out in so far. (2/2)
Caitot
What is stopping an isp from giving this new site priority like they do with speedtest.net?
oyoyoyyyyy
Then they cannot throttle netflix traffic
Caitot
But they are set up as two separate websites, even then its possible for an isp to give priority to single page of a multi page website.
VladLong
They only appear as different websites to a human. to the ISP they look like the same thing. look up what DNS is
varesa
that is much more difficult however. It is easy to change routing based on IP or AS. Packet to 54.72.0.0/13? That's netflix->slow it. (1/?)
varesa
But if the same servers host the sites, now the ISP has to look inside the packet payload which is many layers deeper on the network stack
varesa
On top of that if fast.com actually connects to the netflix video distribution servers for the test data, it's impossible to know what the
monodop
Isps arent necessarily responsible for your speed to netflix. Their rates apply up until their edge routers. The actual internet is the /1
monodop
Not really something they have huge control over. Congestion, outages, traffic, routing and so on can cause slowdown. So while this is a /2
monodop
Good data point, it isnt actual proof of wrongdoing. I dont know how you would actually prove throttling, or if that even makes sense to do.
mimomisu
several test every day at different times? With enough data, the average from both sites should be quite similar. If not, well...
monodop
No. The distance can be different, more congested route, or the servers can just be slow. And hundreds of other factors
varesa
You could compare against a user of another ISP in the same area. If they're constantly getting 2x the speed you know something's wrong
superbob201
In most cases, the slowest link between you and Netflix should be the connection between you and the ISP.
monodop
There's plenty of potential places for bottlenecks. Maybe netflix has poor connections to your local area. Maybe your dns is poorly setup
superbob201
With all the work Netflix has put in to integrate itself in the infrastructure of the internet, those should only rarely be the bottleneck.
HuntingtonBrown
This site confirmed that while paying for gigabyte service we were only getting 200mbps max. A calm yet stern call to Comcast followed.

wekilledbambi03
Lemme guess. You needed a new router? Everyone assumes their routers are good for years. But speeds are much faster than a 5 year old router
HuntingtonBrown
The original tech didnt set it up correctly apparently...
mimomisu
my laptop is 8 years old now? wifi gets about 40% of the speed. I just moved and bought a cable since my router is close. big difference
OddOod
I had to get a laptop cooling pad for my Archer C7, worked a charm. Now I have google wifi and it's glorious
CrispyNougat
You may just need a new modem. It requires a DOCSIS 3.1 modem. Some DOCSIS 3.0 modems can do it, but those typically top out at 200Mbps
OddOod
fucking 3.1 surfboard was 225 when I bought it. .5Gbps is nice tho

This is what I was going to say, cause I got gigabit this year but my old modem capped at 200.

HuntingtonBrown
Be polite and understanding but firm with them and the rep usually wants to help you out. They thanked me for my civility.
parsious
and of course if your ISP was giving traffic to speedtest sites priority dont you think a post like this may get fast.com added to the list?
khora
That's what Netflix is hoping for. fast.com is just loading video data from netflix.
parsious
yes but you don't watch videos using the fast.com name so the change of routing would only be effect requests to fast and not video traffic
khora
The test data isn't loaded from fast.com. It's loaded from ntflxvideo.net.
parsious
yes .. and you still access the site using the Fast.com URI in order to get the speed test page.
khora
The ISP only know that you have visited fast.com just before loading data from netflix.
DancesWithDancesWithDancesWithDancesWithWolverines
fam the data is coming from netflix servers, if they want to prioritize it they gotta prioritize netflix servers
OkButWhyWereTheyFilming
Read the full post. Since Netflix hosts the site, they could do that, but it'd mean they'd have to then give priority traffic to Netflix.
parsious
you do understand you can prioritize traffic by target domain name right.. oh this is to fast.com use this path, oh netflix you get path X
OkButWhyWereTheyFilming
I did not, thank you for clarifying. I was sort of wondering this myself.
parsious
yep .. you can base routing decisiosn on almost anything source, destination, protocol used, and those are the common ones
VladLong
They can't because the internet doesn't work this way https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_Name_System
varesa
However that gets more difficult than just prioritizing by IP or AS if the fast.com site is hosted on the same servers/addresses than video
parsious
yep, but you really think companies that want net neutrality gone wouldn't pull this stunt and from a quick look IP the way to filter this.
ImProbablyJoking
Fast.com: *Slower than what you pay for* - Me: wtf - ISP: We don't recognize or accept the results of Fast.com as an accurate test of speed.
TheGame21x
I just use it as a barometer to see when my connection is slower than I paid for. When it’s slow, I call and complain. I don’t mention Fast.
KeeleonOhms
And then you wait on hold for 2 hours before getting "accidentally" disconnected?
Corrodias
Naturally, I get 60 mbps to my local ISP test site and 30 at best anywhere else. I should file a complaint.
DixonHillPrivateEye
I was gonna say, it's not like they'll do much if you call Comcast up and complain

No but if enough people complain its an issue for comcast. But its great for the rest of the world where we have more than one option

How can your ISP affect how fast the connection is to anywhere outside their network? And why is that their responsibility?
superbob201
Your connection to a source is only as fast as the slowest link, but in the majority of cases, that slowest link should be between you & ISP
cca220v
when the data reaches isp they know where it came from and can delay the packet or simply drop it
NotHAL
On the other hand, they can't make it any faster. Not defending them, just pointing out possibility that target server could be overloaded..
cca220v
it is their responsibility to not tamper with your data
SpiderDetective
Did you mean: FAKE NEWS
notbeau
You pay for peak speed and that usually is only guaranteed to their connection point not to the rest of the internet
ContinuallySenseless
In Finland, the connection has to be at least 70% of the advertised speed. Otherwise the ISP has some explaining to do. To authorities. ->
ContinuallySenseless
We have a fairly competitive market (3 major ISP's) and lot of government oversight on quality, so happy place on that account.
yobego
The USA has very little major oversight, 1 major isp in most areas but they claim "competition" since you can get satellite internet 1/3
yobego
and say that actually meeting the standards would cost "too much" money so their paid politicians just ignore the regulations 3/3
yobego
These same companies also go through and collect millions each year for "improvement" and when regulations are in place, they go through 2/3
OddOod
I mean, Google, OHV and SpeedTest all put me at 500+ while Fast said I was getting 300
