Re: [WISPA] AT&T MIS Throughput
Which is STUPID and means somebody isn't conforming to Ethernet standards properly. If you're connecting via gigE copper SFPs that's one thing... But copper to copper and GigE doesn't work right? That's a willfull disregard of network spec standards. On Mar 1, 2014 2:31 PM, "Leon D. Zetekoff" wrote: > > Auto doesn't always work right on gig ports.

Re: [WISPA] AT&T MIS Throughput
Auto doesn't always work right on gig ports. Try and make sure you and AT&T are set the same. Watch the interface stats and see if u have any errors etc. Mismatched interfaces are always a problem. I'd use the in net tests to give u better info. If u want to use speed test.net use Washington as it's close to the heavily used ashburn peering point. I prefer myspeed.visualware.com and use Dulles location close to ashburn. But sort out any interface issues first. Call AT&T and find out if they see any.

Re: [WISPA] AT&T MIS Throughput
Make sure u pick a server that is close to a known peering point to get more accurate results.
