I know its no 15 MB's like Verizon has in like 2 places but I just over night went from 3 MB to 6MB and over doubled my upload at the same time.

I downloaded 100 MB's in about 3 mins, not to bad!

:thumbsup:

I'm signed up with Audible.com and downloaded an audio book, but a good speed test site is this, though its best to run a few times to get the average.

Anubis, that's the standard plan. Their higher speed plan is now 6.0/768, and you probably qualify.

I can't believe Charter is still charging $45 for 3000/256 or $35 for 384/128 with no other choices.

I'm thinking about paying the extra $10 a month for the gold tier, not because of the upgrade from 4.0 to 6.0 download but for the upgrade from 384 to 768 upload.

And I'm still stuck on 1.5/384 (DSL, but it's a heck of a lot cheaper than cable in this area)... :(

Well, at least it beats d***-*p. ;)
