|  Re: Internet Speed Aunt is paying for me to have 56k/s for $11 a month. But, the damn thing isn't running anywhere near that and even the technicians can't figure out why. Currently running at: 16.8k (a huge improvement over the 10k max it was doing)  |

| Re: Internet Speed Download: 8Mbit theoretical maximum, realistically between 2 and 6Mbit Upload: 448kbit Oh, and a supposedly 'uncapped' connection (so I can download as much as I want) but other customers have reported that 60Gb per month is a trigger point for letters asking you to not download so much. All for 5GBP per month |

 | Re: Internet Speed Wow, how do you people get internet so cheap? I have 2mbit/500kbit for 60$ a month. (TDC) But then the speed is always on par, actually most of the time a little faster and the best service you can possible imagine. I could get 25/25 for the same price at a different provider, but I for sure would not get the same service and properly not the promised speed. Last edited by lakersforce : 05-17-2007 at 02:13 PM. |

| Re: Internet Speed I've got a theoretical 24megabit down but as it's ADSL2+ so i never actually get that. I await 50/50mbps fibre optic from Virgin Media with anticipation and credit card in hand. |

| Re: Internet Speed 10Mb down 1MB up The download speed is usually much faster as it is with U.S. cable companies. Upload speed with cable companies is another story. The 1MB upload isn't actually true. The upload speed between me and the isp is 1MB or more but will not leave their servers to where I'm uploading to any faster than between 65k to 85k which is actually the upload speed and should be advertised as such.  |

| Re: Internet Speed 4Mbit/256kbit for free. Mom's company pays it. The normal price is about 40$ I think, but don't know for sure. This price was for originally 1Mbit/128kbit, but the provider raised the speed a few months ago for everybody. |
