Upload speed faster than download speed?
We're on 50Mbps fiber, and we're seeing a huge discrepancy in upload and download speeds. I just ran Comcast Speedtest and it showed the following:
Ping: 4ms
Download: 6.16Mbps
Upload: 44.75Mbps
Isn't it usually the other way around? Shouldn't fiber be at least a bit more symmetrical?
TIA.

Rich, the OP said that this is fiber service; I believe Comcast does offer symmetrical tiers there, and the SNR/other signal data you mentioned wouldn't apply here.
If the OP is referring to "Business Ethernet" service, I believe that the support phone number is 800-741-4141

Hello sids1045 and welcome,
Actually Comcast currently offers 16 Mbps down /3 Mbps Up , 25/10, 50/10. 75/15. 100/20, 150/20 busness class internet speeds. The download and upload speeds are a direct function of the quantity of bonding channels contained with this Comcast Gateway (CG) device. There are many possible speed variation elements such as signaling distortion, CG bootfile, etc. I would log into you CG and check your Signal to Noise Ration (SNR), upload & download power levels, as starters for your posted internet speed descrepancy.
Hope this helps you out.
