 "Very stable in the Greenville SC area. Upstream is very consistent and alway's well above 900 + Kbs."
 "Raw throughput tends to get cluttered in the evening hours."
 "Great service... 10/1"

Well Charter definitely has my vote in the Greenville SC area. I am currently paying for 10/1 service and getting around 7/1 to 8/1... Now the keeper factor of this package would be the available upstream. I use vonage on this line so upstream is somewhat important. It seems as though Charter has done a good job at keeping the upstream limit very high without compromise... At least in this area...
Now as far as the Downstream, that fluctuates a lot comparatively for the amount of bandwidth I am paying for. I have seen 9.5/1 once early in the morning but this can be expected on Cable. After all we are all sharing the allotted bandwidth. The other interesting point of having a 10/1 connection is kinda crazy considering if you do a lot of downloading that most host(s) are not even close to giving you the speed your are capable of reaching. That is a little concerning to me because I do tend to question why I would even need 10/1.
Overall I find myself with an excess of bandwidth and my throughput get's sluggish in the evening's. I can live with this 
Great Service from Charter.
