Upgraded to GIGA plus fiber now speed is 10x worse? any suggestions

We upgraded to Gigablast plus fiber with speed listed as 1000/2000.  We are actually get 93 on a good day and 11 or even 7 .. Was told its not the equipment, and not the install, but no solution.  ...

93Mbps is a very uniquely suspicious test result.  I'd check the status of the Ethernet connection to see what Phy link speed you're getting.  It sounds like you have a device connecting at 100Mbps somewhere.

    I agree, I would wager they probably have a cat 4 cable somewhere, or cat 5 cable.
