I had that same package from Comcast. But, since I choose to live in South Florida (where everyone else in their mom live), I never EVER saw that kind of speed. In fact, I had more problems with speed fluctuation that I could hardly even play BF2 on it.

Thus I ordered BellSouth DSL and all is well. :)

Timewarner Road Runner

I think they are about to bump it all up in the next couple of months too.

RR as well,

However, I get 8mbps down and 750kbps up.

:laugh: I think I am the only with RR in my town of 5,000!

Optus Cable, uncapped speeds, 12GB download limit (12noon to 12mn), 24GB download limit (12mn to 12noon). Stupid ay! Speeds arent that great, best downloads are off Macromedia and Microsoft and a few other servers, top download speed was 3000Kbps or so, off usual servers and P2P its 200 odd. Ping usually 5-30. $64.95 per month AUD.

Re: what's your connection speed ?

sbc/at&t dsl advertised as 1.5-3Mbs...i get around 2Mbs (downstream, not sure what the advertise upstream is, but i usually cap out at about 50KB/s when sending files to friends over AIM)

Re: what's your connection speed ?

One thing to keep in mind is that Kbps (kilo bits per second) is different than KB/s (kilobytes per second)

Most cable companies will advertise the Kbps or Mbps (the bits) because it will be a larger number than KB/s or MB/s

Re: what's your connection speed ?

If you have it displayed as Kb/s, divide the number by 8 to get KB/s. :)
