Cox HSI, randomly worst or best in the area.

However, I did the same three tests 2 weeks ago and it was >1mb/s, dl, >0.5mb/s ul speed.

Ping around 300 or higher.

Why is it that the "Highest rated ISP" has such in consistant speeds?

Also, even at that speed, a 1Gb file takes HOURS to download.

EDIT:

I do understand that serverload and thier ISP quality can determine how fast I can dowload, but 100kb/s instead of the 16mb/s I have been told I can download at is stupidly slow.

Wow, those speeds are terrible. Set it to MB/s and and see how much you're really getting screwed considering gigabit is standard in some places.

Switch ASAP.

Clamps, those speeds are faster than ~65% of the USA for some reason, and Gb/s speeds are unavalible here.

I very much doubt that. That's absurdly slow.

You can certainly get better than .5MB/s. Just complain to you ISP and say you're going to cancel, and they will likely upgrade your speed for free for a while.

Is there really any Gb/s internet service available for residential use anywhere? In my region, 200MB/s is probably the max you can get, and it is really expansive

Note that I was not specifically talking about the US. Right now Kansas city, Austin, Seattle, or any other major city is your best bet for finding gigabit service.
