I'm on the 6meg/ 608k package, you couldn't pay me to go back to Charters  :biggun: 200k downloads with there 5meg package angry4, besides the pings with SBC  are top notch, I live about 500ft from the RT :headbang:, DSL is the best deal for me, Charter was slow and there pings were unstable....I would take the 3meg DSL over a 10meg cable, too many people sharing the cable bandwidth 3some

Yeah, the gaming center here still has the 6/512 package from before they stopped offering it, it's pretty cool, since it's about the fastest internet connection around here.  There are speed tests from it in a thread further down the list.

EDIT:  Here they are.

I did manage to get 513 Kbps upload once when there were only two people on the network, but it only happened once.

Well, type 192.168.0.1 in your address bar, it will tell you the speeds at which you are connected. Post the results and then the experts (not me) will know where to start.  Smile
