Slow Speeds in Sixmile

What’s available in Sixmile depends on your address. Long line runs, weather, and terrain can affect reliability. When the connection or plan can’t keep up, streaming, work, and video calls suffer. Many residents want the kind of performance people expect from a first-class internet connection. Alabama Lightwave delivers fiber-fast speeds and first-class reliability in its Sixmile service area, with 24×7 real human phone support when things go wrong.

Local Factors

In Sixmile and the rest of Bibb County, geography and infrastructure matter. Buried lines can be affected by storms or construction; repair timelines in rural areas can be longer. Some providers oversell capacity, so peak times get congested. You need enough bandwidth and a stable connection—and a provider that prioritizes restoration and local support.

Quick Steps to Try First

Restart your modem and router. Move devices closer to the router or use a wired connection. Close other apps and devices. If speeds are slow at the same time every day, congestion is likely. If it’s slow all the time, the bottleneck may be your plan or the line. Run a speed test during a quiet time to see what you’re actually getting.
