Yeah, upload has been that high for a few years.  Customers want that bumped up next, but I honestly don't see the point.

No, but I get 9mb/s right now with one way.  I wish they would upgrade all the remaining one way lines to two way before they do this, it's ridiculous that they still have one way in some places in the year 2005.

RCN Prepares Mach 10 Launch
Upgrades promised on Feb 28th ... may launch sooner
Users in our RCN Forum have received information that the updated config files for RCN's "MegaModem Mach 10" service offering will start pushing out to modems this week, possibly as early as Tuesday. RCN officially confirmed the upgrades in mid-January announcing they would be offering the 10Mbps/800Kbps cable broadband service across all of their markets on February 28. The changes will have current 7Mbps customers upgrading to 10Mbps; 5Mbps customers will be upgraded to 7Mbps.

lucky you guys

It officially starts today, users have to unplug and replug their modems, and they should have the new config file.  Not big for me, because I have been downloading at 9mb/s for the whole time now.
