Internet speeds - how much is truly needed?

Wow, that's really impressive. Does Verizon=Fios? Cost? I wish they'd come to Chicago!

FIOS 25/25, I have a triple play package: TV/Phone/Internet for $100 a month.

I wouldnt mind changing to FIOS but only time warner has the korean channels that my parents want :P

Man I pay $220 a month for my phone/Internet/Cable for Comcast and I get speeds nowhere near that.

The AT&T fix has come through so now I am back to very high speeds on the iPhone.

Sprint is still as crappy as ever.

And that's shared between 20 people. All for the low price of $1401.95. But I'm happy to have it.

Jeff: Maybe you should send those pics to Dan Hesse of Sprint :indra:

Sweet!

Damn, I wish it was an option here. I've researched this at length, and the most consistent thing I've read is if Comcast already has a strong presence, then Verizon probably won't bother with my area.

I wouldn't lose hope. FiOS came to my town (and couple other surrounding towns) even though Comcast, for all intents and purposes, was the only game in town. Of course, it did take them year and half to actually start offering services after signing contract with the town(s).

That's why we have FiOS and DirectTV (for the Chinese/TW channels).

Really? Great to know! Thank you for restoring some hope in my internet life!

It appears my work as upgraded the service a bit.

I suspect it'll still be back to crawling speed from 11-1 when various folks are taking their lunch breaks.

I don't know what was going on when I posted the above post, but below is what it's been like for the past two weeks. I love that upload speed is faster than the download speed.

I now officially have 4G in NYC. Unfortunately it is dramatically slower than AT&T 3G.

I will strap it to Colin and have him wander the halls. ;)

I think there is just something wrong with it now as last week everyone in the office was using it and getting at least 2 MBPS.

Right, I got 3285/1084 off that overdrive last week.

Just walked into an AT&T store to upgrade my iPhone. Much more excited about the 25/3 fiber just scheduled. Lived with .7/.3 for most of the last decade (parts of San Francisco were early to install DSL, late to upgrade). Starting to like the 'burbs. ;)

Just finished hardwiring my network on a decent gig switch. Still not getting much content into the system faster than 2 mb/s or so, but now it will move around pretty quick.
