said by MJimLay:said by Rob_:not real real.. it would be nice to get fios like speeds though. i would love to archive a show in 2 minutes instead of 7. -Rob Wow... a whole 5 minutes! YeeHaw! I'm not trying to bash you, but you seem to do nothing but complain on here. Before Powerboost, you'd always complain about not having OOL speeds... now that we have speeds that exceed them, you complain about FIOS. Can't you ever be happy? I personally think Cox is doing an excellent job and am very happy with their internet service. I wouldn't complain so much if I were you... someday Cox may be taken over by Comcast and BOY, you think you have something to complain about now... just wait until then! Sorry to threadjack, but I just wanted to thank you for that comment, MJimLay  . The constant griping by a select handful of users on this board is old and boring.
I think Cox has done a great job out here in AZ since taking over @Home and Dimension Cable, and this is why I will continue to subscribe when I move to Las Vegas next month.

I believe OOL'ers still get more. they're 15000/2000 on the NORMAL account[equiv to cox's preferred tier] and 38000/5000 on BOOST[equiv to cox's premiere tier]
plus on their best tier, port 80 is open and servers are allowed.

So...old news by now, but the Premier tier seems to now be 15down, 1.5 up. So those powerboosted speeds make sense. |

Mary Esther, FL | correction, 20/2. at least it is here.
why they would only offer 1.5 is beyond me. that's so 20th century for a premier package.

kudos:4 | said by Rob_:..here's the proof: (see above) * yawn *
upload in config file is set at 1750kbps[in havenot areas] to account for overhead.
FYI: 211.5 * 8 = 1692kbps. over the 1.5 but within what i said above and well below 2mbps!

Mary Esther, FL | maybe were getting the 2.0 speeds because of at&t? but there is the proof! i let this go for quite some time to "settle down"
even the site says 20/2.0 unless there lying.
but..you can't lie about that picture!
