Re: 15/2 or 15/5 Although on this page of their website it says 2 for OOL & 5 for Boost

Cablevision is notorious for mistakes on their website, so obviously one is wrong. |

| I haven't seen any speed tests at 15/5 - which is why I would agree that this is a typo. But who knows - maybe they're going to up BOOST to 30/10...

I'd be inclined to drop boost if this isn't a typo.

Cablevision has to know that a good number of people that use Boost will step down to the regular tier if this is the case however I highly doubt it. We can't be that lucky..
And just in case this _is_ true, how will this affect their capping? Will it be as relaxed as BOOST currently is?
One can only hope. I'm currently on hold to speak with sales about upgrading my iO package, and will inquire, for whatever it's worth.

I'd pay another 10 bucks a month to scale up to 10mbps to be honest.
edit: Just got off the phone with a sales rep (BOOST sales rep) - He doesn't know anything about the offer and quoted 15/2 and 30/5 as their only available tiers in my area (?)  - however, to get to the screen capture, I had to submit my zip code and account number. The plot thickens.

Waldwick, NJ | It has to either be a mistake (5mb up) or they need to change the rest of the site which references 2mb up (5mb for Boost) such as »www.optimum.com/online/why/faster.jsp or |

Im pretty sure thats supposed to be MINUTES on the bottom and not seconds.. Doesnt even make sense -- on the top part they show a 125MB download at 15Mbps as taking 1 minute, but a 100MB upload at 2Mbps takes 9 seconds? Huh? |
