My daughters can truthfully say this is not their father's Internet.
Sometimes I long for the Procomm plus and XTree Gold days and the trusty ole Amiga 2500 ...
I have TWC Extreme. Supposed to be 50mb service right now and going to 200mb by the end of the month. I just bought a SB6183 cable modem that is good for 300mb service. I am getting 34 down and 6 up. I am going to call to see why it isn't the advertised 50mb service right now.
DudiousDan, sounds like we are on the same service. Can't wait for the new speeds to kick in. We jumped on the 34.99/month deal for standard Internet with free extreme upgrade for a year. So 34.99/month for 200mb service in the end. I can handle that!
We also just cut the cord for cable TV bought a HDTV antenna and a preamplifier. Now we get every station down here that is free in HD.
Question.
What speeds are your devices wifi or ethernet cards capable of?
Depressing.
Then again, I don't know what my tablet can digest.
Wow.Long dead thread, but how times change:
Wow.
I'm still using exactly who I was using in the exact same configuration as when this thread started. So I get exactly the same ping times; my up/down speeds are roughly doubled. And the price has gone down a bit. That's progress but it's nothing like what you've posted.
