I am currently using the 25M plan from Telus and my neighbor is on 6M Telus plan, both non-optik.
So my problem is when I am using my 25M internet (wifi) to stream video from Youku (China version of Youtube), I get around 20kbps as shown in the screenshot.
The weird thing is that, when I connect to my neighbor's 6M Telus through wifi (his router is farther away from my PC, with more walls in between, thus higher ping and weaker signal strength), I can load the same video at 112kbps.
We are both using the same gateway Actiontec V1000H. The only differences I can think of is my computer being closer to my own gateway and having an higher speed of 25M. But strangely my neighbor 6M internet with weaker signal yields a higher speed.
Does anyone know why I get this lower speed even though I am on a higher speed profile and both are from the same ISP Telus?
Would appreciate if someone from Telus or someone who knows about this sort of stuff can help me.
Thanks in advance.
