Cableone TOS

A "Residential" customer getting extended speeds who consumes 330 MB during a two hour period will automatically change provisioning to Standard Speeds for a period of at least one hour or until measured consumption drops below threshold


Thanks to this I get around 30 KB/s when downloading. These idiots assume everyone downloading large files are warez monkeys...

I can't wait to get my DSL reintalled.

Trust me, I will be. It sucks around here. We have two monopolies. Cableone and Qwest. Qwest is the lesser of the two evils I guess.

GOD KNOWS, why comcast caps its upload. I am trying to find a uncapper, if someone can help me that would be great. Also, my max download from comcast is only 500 kb/s but for my bro in lansing it is 5 mb a second wtf is up with that.

Wow, people complain they "only" get to download with 500kb/sec :rolleyes:

I'm on 512/256, which translates to 50kb/sec down and 20kb/sec up...it's not that bad really.

I have, Adelphia Power Link with a Motorola SURFboard. I average about 4.6mb to 5.0mb downloads, and about 900kb to 1.0mb uploads. I love the bandwidth here in WV, but that's about it.

"Victims! Aren't we all?"

I'm on 1.5MBit/256k (180-190KB/s down, 30KB/s up) and I love it. Mind you, this is one of the fastest services you can get in the UK. Smile

Cox is nice, my friend has it and it's pretty similar to Comcast. I have Comcast, and it owns in every way except upload. I'm at 3mb down and 256k up, with a 200k - 400k/sec download rate. I don't know how fast I can upload, but I can host 8 players on Renegade just fine.

Comcast used to be at 1mb, but they upgraded to 3mb just before I ordered it. Smile
