Re: Census

No , it would not.

They are Comcastic ! They have upload "powerboost" which give a bump to over 1 mbit !

Good try though, they could use wording to fit into the high speed access grouping.

I would think not. The entire concept here is to report accurately (or at least moreso than currently) what is available.

Who really has a 1mbps upstream from Comcast? Around these parts, I have yet to see any Comcast connection pull a 1mbps upstream result from a speed test.

Yea.. I know how "Comcastic" IS the cable industry...

However, this is supposed to be a good thing... haven't gotten all the way down through the rants yet, but this shows that people will bitch because they want something done, and when something is trying to be done, they will bitch about it too.

.. me thinks people just like to bitch and fester.
