...Excuse me ISP?

I get like 200 down and 15 up. Bullshit, huh?
-_-

That's around 25 MB/s download.
Or a whole copy of Animal Crossing on the GameCube a second.

I'm getting around 4.6 MB/s.
That's like one of my assignments per second.
Adjusting for the lag that generally accompanies downloads because why not, I'm averaging a maximum of 1 MB/s. Most websites it's 674 KB/s.

(8 Mbps = 1 MB/s)

I know that 200 down is good, I'm saying that it's BS I only get 15 up, especially since my dad pays nearly $80 a month for the internet + landline phone.. But honestly I do hope that you get better internet soon, and maybe a better router like for example the ones Google makes, they're kinda nice since they do speed tests from the router itself which gives more accurate results for the general speed, not just the connection speed of a specific device. (since the more things you connect to a router, the more the bandwidth tends to get split between them all)

Check your network gears, if you have a router that only capable of outputting 50 Mbps, then you won't get that 300Mbps even if you paid for it.
 
I remember having Comwave internet in an area where it was not provided locally (best for those in Toronto) and let me tell you it sucked it took like two to three minutes to just search things up and online gaming was a no go. So I can identify with your pain regarding the internet connection.
