This is at home, with Comcast. If I were at work...heh...depends where I test from at the office..but I can get close to 20,000 upload there if I test from the data center right into the Catalyst.

How the hell did you get power boost. I'm with comcast now, paying almost the same as you.

It was deployed in our area quite early in their rollout, I'd say mid-summerish?....you should get a thing in the mail saying they're rolling it out. Basically they reprovision the modem automatically..and the next time your modem power cycles...it has the new config..and BAM...you be cruisin'!

Call them up and see if it's in your area.

Comcast is taking over Adelphia which is who I have... I got another letter yesterday about them sending out a email to transfer my addy's over.. but maybe I should power cycle the modem to see if it takes a new system or something? cause the speeds I get now are the same as they usually are with Adelphia.

Thanks for the tip

BTW, Julie ordered the memory for me behind my back, so I tried it and it worked. Nice multitasking with lots of progs opened up.

Regarding this power boost...how long does the boost last? Then after the boost what does your speed throttle back to?

My speeds are slow this evening. Should be getting double the download. Upload is fine.

Test 1

Test 2

You know, that third test would explain the fun times I always have with the low download speeds at AllofMP3.com!

"A PowerBoost burst will normally last as long as 10MB of a file download on Comcast's 6Mbps High-Speed Internet service, and as long as 20MB of a file download on Comcast's 8Mbps High-Speed Internet service. "

Prey pretty much got it, goes down to about 8,000kbps, in areas with teh 2 speed service if you get the 6,000kbps then it'd go down to that.
