Sorry Qwest, 'Next Generation' Broadband Isn't 896kbps Upstream > Yawn

said by dynodb:

And exactly how many providers make a big stink about upstream speeds in terms of marketing?

Up until very recently, a lot providers were only offering in the neighborhood of 386k to 768k upstream- some still do. Given the choice, most would have the higher downstream than a higher upstream at the expense of downstream speed.

If a work from home "power user" needs faster upstream speeds, switch to a provider or service that offers it. Problem solved.
