Slow speeds

I have the FiOS 75/75 plan with the quantum G1100 router.

When I run a speed test on speedtest.net or verizon.com/speedtest, it shows the proper speeds and i can verify the bandwitdh that goes through my machine.

However, when i change the speed test website to something else, or try to download ANYTHING either from my servers or google, or anything else, it is an order of magnitude slower. the speed usually hovers around 1MB/s. 

Also, I don't know how well I can quantify this... but when I stream (netflix), it is slow OR reduced quality!

I called verizon support today and I was told there was an outage in my area (California), and there has been for a few days. Does anyone else have this problem? or can you confirm that there is indeed a problem in my area?

The verizon speed test  is only testing the verizon network, not the internet. this might be why you see a difference
