UPDATE: Knology was bought by WOW and the greed of the new company is really showing through. Just ask about their bundles...very overpriced.
Knology in Huntsville has recently upgraded to DOCSIS 3.0 and it's GREAT. Downloads are blazing fast. I have no complaints about that.
One thing I wanna touch on is that my uploads from testing on SPEEDTEST.NET and KNOLOGY.NET have all capped @ 1.8Mbits/s
Called customer service twice, they said nothing is wrong with my modem or lines and I believe them.
Just curious if anyone else in the 35816 area has any upload issues?
***UPDATE***
Don't know what if anything they did, but my UPload is now much better. 550KB/s typically.

up loadthe 1.8 up load speed is better than the 550kbs, the 1.8 would be 1800kbs/persec.. your probably on a profile that gives you 15 down and 2 up both of wicth are good.. there would only be a broblem there if you were on a profile that is suposed to give you 25/4, but the 1.8 is what you would get if you were on a standard profile | |

Re: up loadWrong - 1mb (mega bit) = 128 KB (kilo BYTE). 1 bit = 0.125 byte So, 1.8 mb = 230KB, so his 550KB rate is much faster than 1.8mb | |

MB Mb Kb KB et. al.there are 1024Kb in a Mb and there are 8 bits in a Byte so a 2Mb/s (megaBITS) connection should upload/download at 2Mb/s*1024(Kb/s/Mb/s)/8(b/B) = 256KB/s (kiloBYTES)
easy way is to round down the K to M conversion to 1000 and round up the b to B conversion to 10.
If 2Mb/s is advertised then expect about 200KB/s | |
