Nice Little Bump IMHO

Mr. Smurf · May 24th, 2005, 09:08 AM

Mine is like 3500 and has been for quite some time. It may be faster now. Dunno about the up, I could care less. It's fast enough... 375 I believe.

$20/month.

Very nice price-to-performance ratio. I'd give a lot for that kind of upstream, and $50/mo. to Comcast doesn't seem to be enough giving to receive it.

Null · May 24th, 2005, 12:52 PM

at home mine is like 5000 down / 256 up (they might of given me more recently tho, i dunno) Comcast. 44.95/month which includes the cable TV bill too .

i could care less about upload tho, i rarely upload things, and even then its never big. i get sub 30 ping in games, and it downloads files fast. all i need.

humanity · May 24th, 2005, 01:13 PM

I'm pulling 4112/353 with Comcast. It looks like they bumped up the downstream and upstream slightly since I last checked.

RookieCAF · May 24th, 2005, 02:26 PM

http://www.pcpitstop.com/internet/Bandwidth.asp is what I used.

Its quite the bang for the buck, I just wish they'd offer a Naked DSL Line, I'd get Vonage in a heartbeat. I'm pretty happy with DSL as a whole. When I had Cable gaming was a bit hit or miss, my connection was kinda variable atthe time. With the Dedicated Service, its pretty constant.

VampMan · May 24th, 2005, 03:04 PM

that site put me at 6500/720

Pahn · May 24th, 2005, 03:53 PM

I have Verizon DSL (recently upgraded) similar to Rookie's, but I'm paying $35 a month because I didn't want to sign a 1 year contract.

I've got Sprint DSL at $25/month. It's 512kb down, 256kb up. Testing my connection back home, I was getting 488/140.

It's not blazing fast, but it's great for gaming and browsing. I had 3mb cable, but it was terrible. I was getting 40k down, and 240k up during peak hours.

Noodle · October 17th, 2005, 01:40 PM
