  5. Time Warner Cable Internet here:

    25.9 Mbps/sec Down
    .97 Mbps/sec Up

    Good enough for me, since I don't upload large files much :)

    Are you running cable ?



    I'm near Houston and on my cable, no matter where I click on in the in Tx or anywhere in the continental U.S I get pretty close to 10.8 to 11 mb/s consistently. The only measurement that increases is the ping rate.

  9. how's it possible to get such high upload speed? is it your location? or service you pay for? anyway, I get 25Mbps/2.5Mbps for mine. I think it's time for Whiteout56 to step in and bust you all with his blazing speed.

    quick question: I recently added another PC to the WAN, and it seems like it's reduced the speed.....before it was like 30Mbps/4Mbps.....is this common?

  10. Thanks, I looked into it but they didn't have service in the area I needed. Probably will sooner or later though.

    I notice they have "mobile" and "home" service, but can you just take the home modem with you to a different location or is it somehow locally registered? I would be running a router with several computers, so I don't see how I could use the mobile setup.
