Re: Comcast On Demand or Internet downloadable movies? An AVS Forum member recommended that speed test Web site as being more accurate. Indeed, it reports our 6MB Comcast connection to actually be about 4.3MB, which is about what we get on a good day. I wonder if Comcast Sacramento has turned off PowerBoost in this area? Now that you raise this question, I recall reading a post on AVS Forum in which someone recently asked if PowerBoost was still working locally. I wonder...
As for the movie (or any large photo file) downloads, PowerBoost is insignificant in speeding delivery of those files. |

It may not make a huge difference but it does make a difference. Also, depending on the delivery method, Powerboost may or may not work better. I've noticed on some torrents that have a high number of seeds/peers (such as linux isos) Powerboost seems to kick in very often, and speeds things up nicely. |
