I was using 1 megabyte/sec (MBs) below. The speed tests I've run later today when traffic should have been heavier didn't seem to dampen my results: 12.9 mbs (1.6 MBs) down, 1.5 mbs (187 KBs) up.
This is unparalleled on my circuit up to now. Maybe it's caching, but I'm not convinced. I suspect the arrival of FIoS in my neighborhood is behind this. You have to love what little competition there is; doesn't do much to price, but at least we're getting more bang for (a lotta) buck(s). > -----Original Message----- > Well, whatever they want to call it, the caching is a mixed blessing. > > Anyway, I'm averaging 6.5 mbs (800KBs).
