Yes and no.  You're only as fast as your slowest link but now a days you're stuff has to be ridiculously old not to support 100 Mbps.  10 Mbps was already ancient 20 years ago.

I get similar results with my phone and iPad. Ive emailed them to my Spectrum rep ill see what he says

My internet through spectrum will hardly work between 4 and 5 PM

Same, we stream everything and it will just sit there "loading". If pay for a service I better be getting what they "Guarantee".

Spectrum came out today and upgraded me to 10/100, however when I speed test I get this. I emailed them and am waiting to hear what they say but this is pretty disappointing

You need to make sure you are hardwired and nothing else is using the internet. It is supposedly only that fast if there is only 1 computer/device hardwired to the router. I did that and still got ridiculously low numbers and they basically told me to pound salt.

could be a bad line to the house. Really shouldn't have any splicing to your modem. I had my net flicker and become unreliable on and off last winter. then one day it stopped all together. A tree root had popped open the line and water got in. During the freeze thaw it corroded then eventually fubar. 

it may be painful, but spectrum does owe you a solution. just be persistent.

I’ll be as persistent as the salesman that’s been begging me to upgrade for a year, believe me lol

whatever is providing you wifi. if it's through work the firewall is probably slowing you down. Or it could be that your 2ghz band is overloaded. 

Spectrums router gives me WIFI so that is be in front of the Cisco router my company sent me right? Its that router thats slowing me down. Ive sent them a note and somweone should have gotten back to me by now. I appreciate your help on this!
