[LA] New Orleans gets speed increase

Looks as if the preferred package went from 7 down to 9 down. no change to the upload

Also the premier package went from 12 down 1 up to 15 down and 1.5 up.

What kinds of speeds are you seeing with the Powerboost feature that they advertise?

Preferred is suppose to be up to 12 megs and the premier is suppose to be up to 20 megs. But usually much higher on both packages.

Anyone know if other areas (such as San Diego) will be getting these new speeds, and, if so, the approximate time-frame?

I hope soon, we haven't gotten an increase in speed since around Nov. 2006, not counting Powerboost that we got almost a year ago.

Would be nice if they started bumping the upload for the lower packages. Many times I have seen downloads cap at 1-5mb because the web sites have caps in place. About the only time I see DL speeds hit 7-8mb is when updating my linux computer. Yet when I try to send a big file to my dad, I have to cap the upload speed to below 512k so I have some UL left for the control packets for other stuff. Another .5mb UL, or even 256k UL would be more use full then another meg of DL bandwidth.

I'd say your speed test is flawed unless you're on the super secret DOCSIS 3.0.

I'm getting the 1.5 mbps upload speed increase but not noticing any difference downstream. So is it supposed to be 20 mbps sustained now without powerboost and around 26 mbps with powerboost?
