Title: Comcast cable
Post by: Rinso on May 15, 2009, 10:07:39 AM

I'm going to be moving and I was planning on setting up a new cable internet account.  Is it worth paying the extra for the faster speeds?

I am paying $42.95 a month.  The speeds i am paying for are 6 Mb/s down and 1 Mb/s up.  The speeds I am getting consistently are 16 Mb/s down and 4 Mb/s up.  I doubt I am a average case but I think the best bet is to start on the low tiers and upgrade only if you don't see the speeds that you want.

i just recently upped my speeds to the next tier but im moving them back down because i see absolutly no difference except when it's like 10am - 2:30pm after that the speeds are what they used to be.

Alright cool, that helps me with my decision.  I'll probably be moving to New Holland.
