Upload Speed 1/10th of Plan

I have the "Deluxe 50" plan and should be getting 10 Mbps upload, but am consistently getting 1 to 1.5 Mbps per Speedtest.net. I have tested over many days. The download speeds are excellent and consistent.

I have a Zoom 5341J modem. Is this the information you want?

While Comcast support confirmed that my upload signal was low I decided to do a bit more troubleshooting before having a tech come out. Testing directly from multiple devices and directly off the router did not show a problem - so it was isolated to one PC. That PC has an ASRock motherboard and a utility app installed called xFast Lan (it comes on the driver disc for the MB). Removing that program fixed the problem. It appears to be a known issue with ASRock utilities:

Thanks all for the support.

Hello Cheapscot and welcome,

 

Can you post your Comcast Gateway's upload/download, SNR power signaling values for the Forum Community  to see and assist with your diagnosis?

 

Look forward to hearing from you...

No, we need to have either your Business Class (BC) SMCD3g, or NetGear3000DCR, or DPC3939B Comcast Gateway (CG) information. I do not believe Zoom 5341J modem is a supported BC CG.

Comcast does support it - at least that's what I was told when I signed up. I guess I will have to wait until Monday and call technicall support. Thanks anyway!

Well, it's not technically on the supported device list at http://mydeviceinfo.comcast.net .

For $9 I think you can buy a supported modem 😉

Meh, contraband. I doubt Comcast would activate such a device, and even if they would, the device would likely get swept up in an audit, possibly leading to service termination.
