I'd like to know what speeds you're getting if you're complaining it isn't high
speed. Any speed issue I typically have comes from the other end not having the
bandwidth THEY need. Downloading drivers from Asus and Realtek often never sees
40k while Intel and HP are often having files done faster than I can hit the
save button! My "limit" seems to average just under 1000k for fast servers and
that is sustained for even large files in excess of 1GB.
Comcast has needed a tiered system because $30 a month is enough to get people
off their dreaded dial-up and get rid of their flippin' AOL and Juno accounts.
What they also need is to have the modems do NAT by default with the option to
turn it off. It would help reduce malware at least a smidgen. At $60 a month
though it should remain "unlimited" bandwidth with some daily throttling only
if users are truly being "excessive".
That be all,
Mr O.
