Comments on news posted 2004-07-27 18:27:46: Keeping with what is apparently a theme today, bankrupt cable provider RCN has announced the company will be offering its users a new 7Mbps tier dubbed "MegaModem Mach 7" (Thank you for not being "Extreme"). ..

Comcast is slow.....

Comcast get with it!!! Your puny little 3 mbps looks like nothing now. We all know your network can well support at least 5 mbps down and 512 kbps up.

Re: Better hold on...

7Mbs, 10Mbs? That's nothing, Verizons NEW Fios (FTTP) service here in the USA will soon go as high as 30Mbs/5Mbs($199.95 per month), As soon as the Fall of 2004 I hear, 15Mbs/2Mbs service is scheduled to be at $49.95 and 5Mbs/2Mbs service is scheduled at $39.95 per month. And Yeah I qualify....

opt offers 9mbs standard?

I have optimum online and there are no tiers like RCN and Time warner have? im guessing because when i ordered it, the 9mbs came starndard with a few tweaks, is this all that optimum online offers?

Re: opt offers 9mbs standard?

I find it funny how obvious the cable co's are threatened by FIOS. I mean, Adelphia is widespreading DOCSIS 2.0 and giving security perks, RR is offering 6 down, comcast offering 4 down, RCN to 7 down. Heh, I find this ammusing.

Comcast is slow?! Shit atleast they give you another tier. Try hanging with Charter. We're always 1 step behind, always late to the party blah blah blah.

All thanks to verizon

Verizon's new FTTP has finally sparked the broadband race we've all been waiting for. There is nothing like competition .
