I recently moved 3 blocks in streeterville - now have RCN. Initially tried the 50/10 tier that worked great except from 6pm-10pm weekdays and on weekend. The speed would then be about 3 down and 6 up.
Now down to 25/4 and same issue - peak hours the speed plummets (and ping goes up) to 3down/4up. Bymidnight speed back at 25/4.
This is over ethernet/gigabit/QOS managed switches etc.
RCN has a real problem. They assured me this would be fixed in a "few weeks". This was August 14 when I moved.
Any other areas in chi town like this? Or is streeterviill all served by one node?
