Just got an offer from Frontier to upgrade my speed for $5/month so figured I'd do a speed test, don't think I really need anything more than this
Always need more

Pretty good, on my upgrade page it is advertised as
"Up to 940/880 Mbps (Fios Gigabit Connection)"
for comparison I just ran test on my 75 and I got 85/80 so I guess Fios runs a little high which is a nice change of pace.

Being how late it is probably helps a bit too. We dropped all TV service from Verizon last December so we upped the internet package and own our gateway/router. We stream with the Roku boxes. No more set top box fees, franchise fees and all the other BS fees they add. $79.99 and that's it. We do have YouTube TV for the live local channel and other networks. They have a nice lineup that works for us. Lots of free channels on the Roku too.
Wow that’s a lot!! Most you can get on maui is 300 I believe
I just cut the cord and bought Comcast 1gig. The speed test shows a third of that. Is the speed test dependent on load? I have a ton of devices, including 3 TVs, 3 phones, 3 iPads and three computers, and a extensive security system hooked up to it now

If the devices are actively using bandwidth, the speed test will be slower. Some devices upload/download near consistently (Amazon Echo, for example). If the security system has cameras that live stream, that is also a bandwidth hog, and will slow down your test.

I doubt all those devices are being used at the same time. 1/3 of advertised speed is really low. We have a bunch of devices too. With 4 or 5 devices being used at the same time I never go below 800mb on a wired connection. Run the test on a wired connection and see what you get.
I just recently upgraded to did FiOS 500/500 but they said they haven't updated the node to my hood yet and it's still just 250/250... But I'm only getting ~100. Pretty sure my router supports gigabit but I'm wondering how important high quality Cat5 cable is? Do I need to be checking my cables or what could my bottlenecks be?

check your modem too. We recently upgraded speed and needed a new modem to handle the higher speed.
I buy my own modem so I don’t have to pay $5/month forever to lease theirs.

I have Xfinity but I am also doing this on my phone.

My internet speed test just posts a picture of a single white dice chip, if that gives you an idea.

Realized I hadn't posted my speedtest on my desktop.

No wonder you never ask for my password. Compared to your internet speed, my password should be "USPS".

Amazing. Especially the download speed. Cox throttles me to 10 mbps upload.
