What is the speed of whore? :what:
Comcast supposedly just upped our d/l and u/l cable modem speeds.
Where is everyone at? I know these tests are not entirely accurate (ram, apps running etc, etc ) but what the hey.....run it anyway!

Here is my work connection...I will run the home one tonight (on the same laptop)
Your download speed : 3575953 bps, or 3575 kbps.
A 436.5 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 88476 bps, or 88 kbps.
Seems like broadband .. above the 1mbit barrier!

Comcast.net
Decent internet service (frequent downtime), horrible customer service. It's supposed to be $44.95/month but I haven't paid over $19.95/month since January because I have had such frequent service outages. Complain often, complain loud.
Also, it should be noted that I'm the only regular user on my pool. At my last place, my DL speeds were about 1/3 of what I get now, and my UL speed was hard-capped at 128 kps.
