    Internet Speeds

    What kind of speeds do you folks have? I used to always have very slow speeds, but recently upgraded and I'm consistently getting faster-than-advertised speeds.

    Why is your upload so damn slow?

    Your ISP might do a speedboost type thing similar to comcast, where they will speed up your download if there is available bandwidth.
    Also my friend used to have COX and it would cache speedboost tests and give insanely fast false results, I'm sure yours is just a speedboost type of thing.

    Re: Internet Speeds

    Haven't we had this thread 84 time already?
    Anyways, I've been waiting for FiOS for a year, DSL has at least been better than cox. Loosing 30% of the speed was worth it considering cox went out twice a week.
