I'm supposed to have 80/10 Fiber internet via Embarq/CenturyLink. I had my router's (D-Link DIR-885L) QOS set up using that bandwidth range. The other day I was trying to determine if the QOS was causing some issues I was seeing and turned it off and ran the speed test here on DSL Reports and my download speed had increased noticeably (just in case I had done something wrong I also ran speed tests on the NetFlix FAST speedtest site and CenturyLink's speedtest site). I hadn't compaligned to CenturyLink about any troubles in a long time (the last time was when a software update screwed up my ONT and nothing worked for days). The only thing that happened recently was I had to reset my ONT because my connection went down (though I still had my fiber telephone service).
Has anyone else seen this happen and how long before CenturyLink realizes it and lowers my speed?
