Time for an update Observation: weekend impact on HFC -- jerky connection/data thru-put. I was trying to watch Netflix on my Chromecast to TV and encountered buffering to that device. I could play direct to my laptop without buffering, but no matter what device I tried to cast -- laptop or tablet -- there wasn't a consistent enough data flow to support the Chromecast.
I also had a look at 'file download test' to my ISP, Internode, during the same period. It was then I also saw the lower speeds (between 3 and 7Mbs) and jerky thru-put. Yet when I tested just now, mid-morning, it was running full bore. I haven't turned on the TV to test the Chromecast behaviour. The other day, it was fine. My question: I am at the low speed setting of 12Mbs. If I upped it to the next tier, 25Mbs, would that increase my speed difference OR would I still get the jerky thru-put and the lower speeds?
