Do you get (verified by Speedtest) the speeds you pay for? I pay for the 75 Mb download speed and only get in the 30-45 range. That sucks a tallywacker.

I paid for 80 and consistently got 15-20.

ATT techs said nothing was wrong. Kept changing the box.

I called ATT and told them to drop me down to 20 since that's all I was getting anyway. Very little difference.

I started off having the same issue as a lot of y'all with AT&T U-Verse. Check the frequency you are connected to. For me the 5 GHz is the fast one, but doesn't reach the farthest room in my house. In that room, my laptop switches over to the 2.4GHz band because the range is almost twice as far. However, the 2.4 GHz band is usually around 20 Mbps.

I have my router spitting out two different networks to keep me on the fast one most of the time. I have had U-Verse in 3 different houses over 8 years in the BR and NOLA areas. All 3 houses had faster than I paid for speeds no matter if it was in the city, suburbs, or country.
