I am 12k ft from my CO ... currently have 1.5/1024 ... I can get a max of 3mb down for an extra $8 a month... Qwest ping times are not to bad for me... 70ms from west coast... 100ms from east... ALTHOUGH... was told by Qwest person that they are over extending themselves right now... and that they are not able to provide the full bandwidth... I asked him when they would be able to provide the full bandwidth .. he said was not sure but would guess around a month... -- Jimmy
