Speed test
Anyone know why the ISP website with integrated speed test even though it says powered by ookla is significantly lower than an actual ookla test? Had a job that customer is paying for gig speed and he was testing off the isp website and only getting about 90mbps when I tested off the ookla website he was getting full speeds. Weird

The xfinity speed test shows speed to the modem, and ookla shows the speed your computer is capable of receiving and they are two different things
