Real men use 300bps.

Comcast basicly said there was nothing they could do to get me cable. I'm not that educated in networking so I can only trust what they say. I do know my nieghbors cant get cable internet either. They're all using either SBC DSL or Dial up.

In which case there are a few possibilities:
First, the signal could be just strong enough to handle cable television in the area, but not the 'strain' of internet services.
Second, they might not actually own the lines themselves, which means that doing anything to them could be difficult.
Third, they're lying to you and/or unbelievably lazy.

Third; In most cases that I've had are correct. The only way I was able to have cable internet is by moving into a house with two cable lines. You can forget it if more than 1 TV is on ONE cable line, and using splitters only makes it worse. AND comcast ran that same game on me about 'nothing they could do'.

Btw 10MBs/380 something kb upstream.

I have AT&T/SBC Yahoo DSL
DL: 1.5 to 3.0 Mbps
UL: 384 to 512 Kbps

Does anyone know if they cap how much you DL/UL for each month? If so, what's the limit?

EDIT:
I guess there isn't a cap.. kewl

at home, 2.7mbps down / 256kbps up (those speeds are very close to the actuals)

at school - 20 T1 lines. yeah. i don't know how fast it goes up to, but i've gotten downloads during holidays here at 1.45MB/s (that's bytes!) and uploads aren't much slower....

Sould be: 5000/800

Last test I've run, I've got: 4137/654

Right now I'm on Comcast 8mbps/768kbps and I must say it's damn good, especially expoliting the free Usenet with that bandwidth. :D

I've got about 3Mbps down / 768 Kbps on Verizon DSL.

Recently "downgraded" to that (we pay half as much for twice the speed from our previous package.)

Just wish they'd roll out the fiber-optic so we can get FIOS here, but I'm not complaining.

DATS WAT.

Acutally its like 5mb/somethingsomething but in real numbers around 1mb download at 110k upload.

ADSL: 1MBit down / 512KBit up
37€ / month

I have been using Roadrunner (from TWC) for roughly two years ago and have been most satisfied. I get about 5Mbps Down and 385Kbps up, which is more than enough to download even the lagrgets files (DVD ISO's, HDTV rips of whole seasons of TV shows, etc.) The upload cap is a pain, but is really just about right for my small web server.

The best part is, the connection has gone down about 4 times since i've gotten it, and always after midnight.

Using Optimum Online here, and I get speeds up to 1500+ KB/sec down and perhaps 50-100 KB/sec up. Which is great for me, since I download lots of anime. Its always nice when I can find a good source and download some series faster than I can watch them. I don't care much for the upload speed, as besides bit torrent, I don't do much uploading.

10/10mbit ... it's pretty damn fast.

256/96 adsl, Sup?

Its rather slow but still it gets the job done, The usual elapse time of me downloading a new released game is around 35kbps but when i download old games (such as silent hill and shadow hearts) it takes me a good 4-5 days, I've started downloading silent hill 3 last saturday and i'm like 80% now, so by tommorow this will be done.

2MB Uncapped broadband from Freeola (UK based).

Downstream: 2272 Kbps
Upstream: 288 Kbps

Usually download between 30-40Gigs a month.
