TX, cable modem thru roadrunner, I've seen 4mbit/sec (on bandwidth test) down.....real life, I've seen over 1mbit/sec on p2p, and half that on browser download......think the upload is 384.......$47 a month. :)

Beats the ever livin' TAR out of any type of dial-up, including their hyped 3G!! :laugh:

Adelphia cable, 560 down 48 up.
I haven't got a clue what it costs. Basic cable and broadband is about 90 bucks.
