Why do people keep complaining about upload speeds? Upload is for sending data. Are you running servers? Or bittorrent. Why do you need that extra bandwidth? And if you really do need it upgrade your account and they will be more than happy to supply it.

Also before you say, "well I am using my account for work so I transfer alot of files..." you can get the extra bandwidth for that.. UPGRADE YOUR ACCOUNT!
The fastest they offer is 512Kbps. They don't offer ANYTHING on the residential side faster. Period. 512Kbps is pathetic in this day of pictures and videos.

 I just think every cable provider should offer a minimum of 1Mbps on their fastest residential tier in every area they serve. It can be done. 512k really is a joke, and even worse, 384k. Uploading just 40 7MP images from my digital camera to be developed online is a 1-2 hour upload process and nearly renders my computer useless for any other internet task during that time because it chokes the download so badly.

Forget about home movies/video.
