| we have boost avalible in this area but only if you have standard 5 meg and add it to that plan for 10 bucks extra. unless their adding it to the lower plans now somethings up with that. A Friend has the 5 meg and the upload rate went from 384 kbps to 768 kbps so maybe their fixing to up the speed not sure. |
