If I could ditch the cable company... I would in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, my cable connection is supa-fast... I may ditch it anyway. The phoneco is offering a whole package for what I pay for Telebizzhon and Interweb: phone, Sat TV (with a ton more channels), DSL (and no, that's not D1ck Suckin' Lips).

Depends on the source of the download, the cable provider, and what sort of bitrate throttling they do, as well as what ports they plan on blocking... eg, Shaw has managed to identify "torrent" downloads and now throttles their DL speed to about 5kbs which isn't bad until you realise a normal movie is 700mb. This is intended to limit illegal downloading, but some places have legitimate reasons for those types of downloads. Blizzard uses a modified torrent system to distribute game patches for example.GeoffXR200R wrote:cable's down steam is > T1's downstream.Myself002 wrote:I'm pretty sure I'm on a t1 but not positive

~5 Mbps downstream. And Adelphia doesn't "fudge" with torrents. My cable FTW! I'd gladly drop down to 3Mbps down for 1.5 Mbps upstream.

educational places tend to by a few kilostream lines and tie them all together.. i used to get insane download rates at uni, and couldn't write to the zip disks fast enough to keep upMyself002 wrote:hehe all i know is I download stuff alot faster at school(t1) than I do at home (cable)GeoffXR200R wrote:cable's down steam is > T1's downstream.Myself002 wrote:I'm pretty sure I'm on a t1 but not positive
