Ookla is the speedtest.net company, Ooma is the phone service. When doing speed tests, best results will be done directly at the modem or router. Also consider, many routers max out at 600-800 Mbps. The ones that can handle over a gig are expensive.

In my case, speed from Fidium is fine, but then I only purchased the 100/100 service. I'm getting a solid 111/112 speedtest results, measured at my router. If you are getting buffering with any streaming service and subscribe to an Internet speed of over 100 Mbps, the problem is likely in your LAN/WiFi or with the streaming service that you are using. It could be a bad Ethernet cable. Older spec'd Ethernet cables don't support speeds over 100 Mbps.

At Fidium's promotional price of $25 for 100/100, I can't complain. Next year, I'll see what NH Broadband offers and maybe switch back and forth.

In my case, I am still stuck with Spectrum (800/34 on speedtest). I haven't moved off my Roadrunner accounts yet and also use Spectrum Mobile, which is a great mobile service but requires Spectrum Internet. I also use a Spectrum Streaming package that is much less expensive than its cable-box service. Once I shed my 300+ email accounts (bank, medical, various service accounts, etc), I hope to shed Spectrum as well.

I have both Fidium and Spectrum (and a router than can load balance) because I upload a lot of videos and do cloud backup. Spectrum is limited to 40 Mbps upload, so Fidium gets me 2.5 faster speed (and a failover service) for only $25/month.
