internet speed test

[Hal-9000]

an illustration of how us Canadians get raped....the first 3 packages at the top reading down give you .5 Mb/s, .5 Mb/s, and then 2.5 Mb/s uploading speeds...

[Hal-9000]

bandwidth transfer per month is also important to me and I download a lot of...ummm...PDF instructional files


125 gigs per month at 50 bucks....it should be unlimited bandwidth per month like Lances for over 600 bucks/yr

Here's what my packages are... I don't think there are bandwidth limits but they do say they can restrict accounts over 250Gb/mo but that it is currently "not enforced."

Yours doesn't seem that bad to me really except for the potential limits being enforced.





Edit: I just noticed that the performance starter price makes no sense.

[Teh One Who Knocks]

Well that's the confusion. The "Performance" package is what I have. The CSR said it's 8 up 2 down but the website says it's supposed to be 20 up 4 down.

Maybe it is an infrastructure issue, I have no idea about that.

I would bet that it's an infrastructure issue, but it wouldn't hurt to call them and bug them about it again. Tell them that if you are not receiving the advertised speeds that you are paying for, then you want a discount to reflect what you are really receiving.

I always get higher speeds than what is advertised for my package.

There's a reason I call it Communistcast..

Funny how you guys always complain about Comcast, yet I have never had an issue with them.

I just bought a TiVo to replace one of the DVR's at home...when I was at Comcast on Friday, without me asking her, the clerk that was helping me offered to go thru my bill to see if she could lower it. Without any change in service, she cut my bill by $70/month.

Never thought I'd say this but... sounds like Lance has a nice package.

$70 lower? Explain!! How much is your monthly bill?

No datacaps as is the norm over here.

[Acid Trip]

25 down / 3 up, no bandwidth caps, $60 a month (AT&T DSL).

How old is your router? Many areas have already upgraded there lines to carry DOCSIS 3.0 standard but you need a compatible router to take advantage of it.

it's all Greek to me

Well, numbers should be all familiar to both of us. Up top you see the speed (8M, 10M etc.) and down below you see price per month (30,14e/kk 36,19e/kk etc.).

30,14e/kk ??


Do you guys still trade in furs, nuts and berries or have you got real currency now

We've got the best Ragnarok tested Squirrel furs this side of the pond!
30,14 e = Euroa/ kk = kuukausi! (Euroa = Euros, kuukausi = a month)

So the internet was down again... they were "working on it"
