I wish I'd get tv/phone/internet for $100. Right now I get only 3Mbps/phone for $90 and you have to add cellphone calls to that phone plan... :S

I have 50down/5 up(advertised) for about 25€ here! Internet speed and cost is much better and cheaper here in Europe AFAIK. Here in Portugal latest speed advertised by ISPs is 300M down and 50up, using fiberoptic connections for about 50€ Still not available were I live though.

UK and Ireland are probably the exception. Speeds are still very slow and prices are very high for what you get.

Yeah, I have what is probably a 3 Mbps DSL account that I'm stuck with for another 6 months. I guess I can't complain because I got it dirt cheap for the first 12 months, but for what I'm paying now, I can't wait to go to something with a little more speed. Netflix HD streaming is barely passable, and while surfing is OK, downloading anything of substance is painfully slow. I keep telling myself that December will be here soon!

Currently getting about 200kbps down on a good day. Ask me if I miss 20/20 FIOS.

Mine is about normal for a weekend.

My 3G upload speeds are seriously slow today. I am fairly happy with the DL numbers from a phone.

IPad wireless n with extreme and comcast. Maybe I should start putting it to good use.

Sorry not showing, about 15 Mbps download and 5 upload

:o:sadcat:

I'm getting 9/2.5 limited by my shitty wireless router. Which crashes whenever speeds exceed 1 MB/s on torrents :palm:

More than this is needed, though I guess it is OK considering I am just tethered to my phone.

wireless and there's another computer surfing the web right now too.

^ I miss FiOS. :(

This is a best I've seen in a while. Though I suspect doing this in the morning is helping.
