Hello all, back in October I ordered the Gigablast package from Verizon. While at the store, the employee informed me that a technician would need to come out and install a SECOND line to my house to help support the connection speed. The technician came out and did not install any new lines, he just ran a single ethernet cable from the Verizon box to the interior of the house via drilling a hole in the exterior wall and plugged that line into the router. After installation my speeds (on wired devices) hover around 50 Mbps. No where near the 1000 Mbps that is advertised. (And yes I mean mega BITS per second, not mega BYTES per second. I am aware that the Giga blast offers only one gigabit, which is about one eighth of a Gigabyte.) I looked for a contact email to no avail, only found a number to call. Does anyone have any tips that could help improve overall speeds? Or is it possible that since a second line was never ran to the house, which I did pay for and never received, could that be the cause of my sluggish speeds? Thank you in advance for all replies.
