Questions about this test

What speeds should Mediacom deliver?

Mediacom's Xtream tiers commonly run from 100 Mbps up to 1 Gig download, with uploads typically 10–50 Mbps on cable depending on the tier. Wired download at 85–100% of plan is normal, and Mediacom often provisions a little above the advertised figure. Over Wi‑Fi, 50–80% is typical on a gigabit plan because the supplied gateway's radio becomes the limit before the line does.

Why does Mediacom slow down in the evening in my town?

Mediacom serves many smaller cities and rural areas where one cable node can cover a large neighbourhood, so 7–11 pm congestion shows up more clearly than in dense metros. Leave the monitor on this page running for a day: an afternoon reading near your plan and a nightly dip of 40% or more is node congestion, not your router, and the exported CSV is useful when you ask Mediacom to split the node.

Does Mediacom's data cap affect my speed?

Mediacom plans have historically come with monthly data allowances, and some tiers slow or charge after the allowance is used — check your current plan terms. A sudden drop late in a billing month, with an otherwise healthy ping, is worth comparing against your usage meter in the Mediacom account before troubleshooting hardware.

Is this affiliated with Mediacom?

No. gbps.run is independent and ad-free, and is not affiliated with any provider.
