On Tuesday evening, we tested signal strength and bandwidth in Hayes and Stuyvesant. The signal strength was acceptable, but we did experience some slower bandwidth in Stuy. I'm posting the test results below. A 1.15 mbps connection is fine for most web activities, but not great for those using Netflix or other bandwidth intensive applications.
The next step is to contact our vendor to see if they can provide some recommendations. I'm in the process of scheduling that meeting now. If you'd like to test your bandwidth and post results in the comments, it would be helpful to our research. Here is the website you can use - speedtest.net
