I did a speedtest and I was surprised to see 3Mbps down/1Mbps up. Was there a speed upgrade?

3mbps down? What plan are you on?
Could the 1mb upload be powerboost?
Mod Note: Let's leave PB and any new speed tier discussion out of this topic, just in case the OP would like help with the slow download. ~sorto' |

| I'm in Union and I have the Blast2 speedtier so I get a consistent 2 Mbps up.
They may be experimenting with the infrastructure's capabilities in your area. -- Happy Holidays ! |

Still either way I would love to see the standard upload speed go to 1000. That would mean the speed tier would be 2000 up or I would drop the speed tier and save some $$$. |

| reply to NickD If you are only seeing 3Mb for your download, then you have issues at work here.
If you would like to investigate why, more info is needed: »Comcast High Speed Internet »How To Get Help! -- Write me up a 125.......I Can't Drive 55 »redrocker.com/ »cabowabo.com/ |

You really need to find out what is wrong but yes it looks like most of NJ now has Blast which is 16/2. If you are paying for the higher tier you will see your speed doubled. |
