Re: Stingy with the uploads much?
said by Dogfather  :For SoCal the RR Extreme tier has been 15/2 for $55 for a long time. I had it before switching to FiOS. And it was cheaper than Verizon's month-month price. Seems like this is a step backward. That's what I'm on now. I might get the occasional speed degradation on Sunday, but other than that it's zip fast. Watching DownThemAll ramp to 2MB/sec on downloads without using the accelerator feature is a beautiful thing.
To the complaints about low upstream, it's obviously to discourage servers. You don't need that much upstream to download files, browse the web or read email - which is what the majority of customers are doing. A better question would be, why the severe lack of strong synchronous connections on the business side? I would expect to see 20/20 over there, but don't. Why not? |
