NoFeso, those speeds are CACHED. Meaning they aren't real, you don't get accurate results if you hit the back button repeatedly. Post some real tests, please.

I have the 3M down/256k up package  ($40 + $3.00 for modem + $50 for cable tv)
Here's my download score
::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is:: 566 Kbps about 0.6 Mbps (tested with 386 kB)
Download Speed is:: 69 kB/s
Tested From:: http://testmy.net/ (server2)

Bottom Line:: 10X faster than 56K 1MB download in 14.84 sec
Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 22.12 % of your hosts average (charter.com)


upload score is about average
I think charter has too many people using the bandwidth since they told me everything was fine.
I want to switch to DSL for better pings in games but I currently have vonage.  Do I have to get rid of vonage and get a phone line to get dsl?  thanks

I have the same package and same situation. I have been using Vonage for a year now and would not think of going back.  What I do not understand is why Charter is still only at 3MB and all of the surrounding Atlanta area on Comcast is now at 8MB.

This is my average speed....

Charter is cheap. I am sure their network could handle another meg on the download and 128k on the upload. If not, they are in a sad, sad, way.

Now @ 5/512.  Honestly, not sure how much the price is realistically, but the bill states $59.99 without CATV (so the $10 multi-product discount wasn't reflected).  Modem rental is $2.96/mo.

Also it's pretty cool that you get FX channel on basic cable; pretty addicted to the Rescue Me series that I have until recently been downloading.

No longer do you have to have a actual voice line to get DSL ... several companies are now offering "dry loop" DSL which means you get a line just for DSL (and usually with better chances of a higher bitrate since there's no voice services interferring with it) and you can still use your Vonage service.
