Nowadays fast.com is following the footsteps of speedtest. No longer true speed from their servers.
Maybe they started losing some potential new subscribers when show the actual speed, which is slower, so eventually they follow speedtest method.

QUOTE(wanttotree @ Jan 20 2018, 01:13 AM) Dont use ipv6. It will not improve. But it might make it worse. Ipv6 was great a year ago. But now tm "spoil" it by throttling it at certain times. What u can do is try to restart yr modem/router untill u get less "throttled" ip range. The best i could get are (60.x.x.x) or (124.x.x.x) or (1.x.x.x) Sometimes 115.x.x.x is okay but not recommended. 175.x.x.x is the one to avoid. Very harshly throttled at certain times. Keep in mind this is not a godsend or miracle work, but it could minimize yr throttling problem. I have been keeping my 60.x.x.x for months now and i stream 4k hdr everyday with no hicup. Although i will have some 4k youtube buffering and kicked down to 1440p around afternoon till mid evening. Not a big problem to me cz mostly my tv is on at night. Its sad, but gotta live with it. Wonder if maxis fibre have the same problem. I tried to restart my WiFi router several times but doesn’t work, IP address will change after WiFi router restart? No issue watching amazon prime/YouTube 4k at night, only Netflix got problem,some times can get 4k but it only can last 1 minutes then drop to 720p.Will try the methods that you suggest. Thanks for the respond

No wonder my speed reached 42Mbps sometimes on fast.com but my internet plan only 30Mbps, haha

Thanks for the respond Yes it will change. But sometimes it will take a lotttt of restarts to get good ip range. May i know whats your ip range? Dont need to send all of them. Just wanna know the front number. Mine is at 60.xx.xx.xx for example.

QUOTE(RonanGow @ Jan 20 2018, 11:57 PM) Huh? I tot this only happens during streamyx era? For unifi, all IP ranges are the same. The only thing you can do is to Disable IPV6, flush your dns and lastly reset winsock if all of them aren't working. I'm currently on 175.138.218.xxx IP range, nothing wrong with my speedtest. Done all the tests with fast.com, speedtest.net, testmy.net, dslreports.com. All are running fine. Below is an image from testmy.net I am using UniFi Lite,the speed is quite good. Netflix no buffer at all.  #NoOffence This post has been edited by mztang52: Jan 21 2018, 01:51 AM

Could it be anything that slows down the speed on your TV? Is your TV connected via wifi network? This post has been edited by mztang52: Jan 22 2018, 09:41 PM

Is your TV connected via wifi network? Nope, my tv connected via LAN cable. I can easily get 4k at now theses days, maybe TM has reset their “device” at my area, thanks for the help dude!
