Re: usenet

I guess if the question should be why with a 3x times faster connection why would powerboost matter. Power boost must really work well.

I am now officially reconsidering going back to my old cable.
It seem like I am finding a new limitation of uverse once a week.

I have uverse.

File size - big.

Powerboost, thought that was for internet only.
Powerboost works for NNTP (Usenet) traffic as well.

Do you have uverse or regular DSL?

Anyway, my guess is you're seeing comcast's burst rate (powerboost).
How big are the files you're dl'ing at usenet?

  I switched from comcast hi speed, 1500Kpbs, to uverse 6000Kpbs. Now my usenet provider (same one I had with old cable) downloads at half the speed, now ~600000B/s vs ~1010000B/s with cable. Is something wrong or is uverse just slower?

BTW my test speed at speedtest.dslreports.com is 5650Kpbs and please excuse B/s vs Kpbs.
