How is WOW in the Columbus area? Franklin County to be exact

I currently have Road Runner Turbo (15 down and 768 up) and it's fast, but the upload is lacking. I was wondering if WOW's 2 meg upload speed is consistent and how are the ping times with WOW?

I live in the Hilliard Area and have the 15/2 service. Works great, I have 15.8 mb downloads and 2.3 mb uploads consistently.

Could you guys please post some speed tests to areas such as Toledo/Radnor Ohio/Columbus? I want to compare ping times if possible.

Thanks a bunch guys RR ping time are a tad better but the extra upload (I'm planning on ordering the 15/2 plan) will surely be worth it. And does WOW use powerboost?
