Re: Wow 100m!

At least they are moving forward with internet speeds, which cant be said for most cable.

Remember, increased speed doesnt mean increased downloading. I would love a faster connection for gaming, which doesnt use more than 3 gig/mo

I suppose they are trying to get the a marketing standpoint; the "100 plan"

100 HD stations
100 Mb internet
100 (hours talktime on the phone maybe?)

As I am sure most people agree, a 100Mb connection isnt NECESSARY for anyone in this day and age (but will be in the future), but it will make a good marketing standpoint.

A faster connection doesn't mean lower latency for gaming either.

You know that's against the TOS. You want to host get a BUSINESS account.

A higher upload increases my chance to host a game; i dont host a server.

How much upload do you need to host a game? Hell one can do that with 2 Mbps upload. Besides hosting a game MAY violate the TOS. I don't know the nuts and bolts of Comast's TOS.
