So, I'm not the only one who's noticed slow Apple devices on the Verizon FIOS wifi at home.
I first noticed slowness last week when I was downloading a full size APOD file, which normally takes about four seconds and is now taking nearly a minute.
I find it very odd that an iPhone 4, & 5, and an iPad 2 all get less than 2Mbs downloads and about 4.5Mbs uploads. My two wifi Windows 7 PCs get around 12mbs down and around 5Mbs up. My FOS is a 15/5 connection.
What is odd is that, looking at my Ookla speedtest results, in June my iPhone 4 was getting downloads at 12Mbs and a month later it's crawling at less than 2.
Same router, same OSs. Tomorrow Verizon's coming out to replace the router, after I spent nearly an hour with a pretty good Verizon tech and his backups yesterday.
I haven't tried wifi in a public place like McDonalds or Starbucks with my iPhone 4. That's a thought, and at least I may find out if its Verizon or my three portable Apple devices.
