I would like more upload but I don't mind the download. if they give you more, it will bring their network down. will be crawling like a snail... it would bring their entire network to their feet... so its not their priority to have fast upload but to have faster download only. to hide the fact that their is limited upload capacity.
Like more user they love to brag about how much they can download while completely ignoring how fast they can upload
even 100/2 will put a smile on most user... including you 
why symmetric not possible? its shared
you and many other user are on 30/30 pipeline
at least 10 people are sharing 30/30, so it isn't obvious until most of you use it at same time then you see a drastic fluctuation... aint that the beauty of shared network? enjoy sharing bandwidth with many others in your neighborhood. |

| I don't think there are very many others on my node as my speeds are consistent day in day out.
In fact I just ran a test of transferring several 400MB files at 30Mbps. At 30Mbps down, it averaged 640k up. This is using wget on a CentOS box.
At 100MBps down you'll need around 2MBps up, minimum. Selling a 100MBps connection with 2MBps upload only is a bit silly, so maybe 10 or 20 up would be fine.
I would like to see them eventually move to fiber to the home, but there's plenty they can do with coax today. |
