I know for awhile i started to think that you can’t get the speed your suppose to from your ISP no matter what the case is, in fact you probably cant even get 3/4 unless you wait till 4AM eastern and test your connection. To really test to see if your ISP is limiting your connection check out this useful speed test HERE.
