| the option of higher upload should be offered I have I believe the best cable speed on the west coast when it comes to upstream, around 900KBPs. I have the highest tier available at 7MBPs downstream and 900KBPS upstream. The basic level I could get is 256KBPS down and 256KBPS up. So the difference in upstream speed betwwen the basic and premier teers is just about 3 and a half times faster upstream, yet the downstream difference between basic's 256KBPS and premier's 7MBPS, is an amazing 28 times faster if my calculations are correct! At the very least we should have more symetrical speeds for those wanting more upstream. Something like 3MBPs/3MBPS or 1.5MBPS/1.5MBPS should be an option. We have the downstream capability for fairly high quality streaming video and yet our upstream which should have the potential for multiconferencing for voice chat or sending high quality video, doesn't because I guess the cable and DSL providers are afraid to actually let us send content and they only want us to receive it! I'm even happy with 3MBPS downstream, but let's increase the upstream to at least greater than 1MBPS! I'd love to at least see the upstream be half the downstream. It's sad that road runner gives you a nice 8mBPS download but the upload still sucks at 512k! Get with it ISPs and give us upload and download! |
