Speeds

Comcast doesnt guarentee your speed. You will probley never get advertised speeds ever. You see with cable internet you share bandwidth with every one in your area, at least thats what I learned in my Networking 112 class at Henry Ford Community college.

I have been with comcast for over 5 years. There service is good. There are ways to tweak your connection but dont expect to get 6Mbps every single day.

Interesting, I get these results pretty consistently from my 6/384 tier.

I realize that the speeds are not guaranteed. However, the speed that I was receiving was 4 meg+. And my tier is 4 meg. So actually I'm receiving 100% of my bandwidth now. And I hope to receive 100% when I'm upgraded to a 6 meg tier in two days.

And considering these results were on a 4 meg tier I'd say I get all my bandwidth...

Of course you guys are lucky. Here in Romulus you have Dialup or comcast. There are DSL providers however most of Romulus is not covered. Many are force to go to comcast. My friend lives right by the comcast node for the area he lives in, 30 people just got hooked up in the area and his speeds just dropped like a sack of potatoes. But for the most part as long as people are not on you should get the max bandwidth and speed possible.
