| now this is funny!
We just moved into a house in Sandy, UT and i called to see if I could actually get the 7meg speed, well guess what I could only get the 1.5! lol This is not a dump of a house or a house located in the middle of a pasture. This house is located in a very nice area.
Qworst is so far behind the times it isn't even funny! I would take dsl over comcast any day of the week, but 1.5 speeds! lmao give me a break. (this neighborhood has been around for around 10 years so it's not like they are new to the neighborhood) -- AthleticsPhotog.com |

| reply to MSauk It has nothing to do with the age of the nieghborhood (unless its _just_ been built). The neighborhood I'm in is ~35 years old, and I have 1.5-3Mbps. Newer areas (1-5 years old) had rt's installed and all had 6Mbps, as there's no new CO's being built. -- Canada = Hollywood North |

That is why I enjoy dsl. Trust me I love the super fast speeds, but I would rather take a line that is more stable. -- AthleticsPhotog.com |

Trust me I love the super fast speeds, but I would rather take a line that is more stable. huh? caps? 300 gigs a month is too little? Pings? Your own speed test you posted shows your pings are 35ms. that's AWESOME!
Speeds?...jeesh..your 26,419/1341 test results sure looks like it blows away anything qwest has to offer you..15 times as much in fact!
Not stable? With results like THAT? It looks outstanding to me!
bittorrent? running servers on Comcast and many isp's is againt the TOS.
Not that they block it anyway.
Jeesh ..sounds like you're pretty dang picky with results like all the above. And I'm sure many people would give their right arm for a connection like that!
It looks to me like Qwest would die for the opportunity to be able to offer what you already have with comcast.
Just calling a spade..a spade here. |

join:2001-01-26 Valencia, CA | reply to MSauk They'll assume that you can get 1.5.. you have DSL. Until they deploy something new (ADSL+, VDSL, etc) with fiber nodes, you won't see any change. -- Canada = Hollywood North |
