Evening slow downs and bad pings have become the norm for many in Queens and other areas of NYC.

 in my experience, when they upgrade the speeds, things get even worse - ie if it is true that TWC RR is already oversold in NYC if they upgrade everyones bandwidth peak hours are going to be even higher pings and even slower speeds. Thats what happened to me in 11211 brooklyn when verizon upgraded everyone from 1.5 to 3.0 and i ended up having to pay $99 to cancel and try other isps.

 Dunno, maybe it's because I'm on NY Connect - rebranded Roadrunner but separate support, DNS etc - but I barely see any problems including my nasty online FPS gaming habit.

Current result:



I cannot recall anything worse than this...
