Obviously the altitude in Denver has reduced the intellectual capacity of all Qwest management down to the idiot level. They seem to have completely missed the point that their infrastructure needs to be upgraded so that they can deliver fast downloads in all metropolitan areas. 1.5 just doesn't cut it and 3.0 is really no better. If they can't provide at least 10 down in every city they serve they should just sell it and let someone capable take over. And the service needs to be everywhere in every city, not just a few isolated areas that some idiot bean counter feels will pay off. I personally left Qwest for cable in two different cities because the service sucked and they had no plans to improve the infrastructure to do better.
Most of us would be happy that their connection is faster then dialup so anything above that quality as broadband such 1.5mbps or 768kbps don't get me wrong, until the majority demand something faster there is no motivation to offer anything faster then what they currently have now did you know that many user at 768kbps would not notice a speed increase if given something faster like 10mbps it depend what you do on the internet since many are internet surfer aka not high quality content freaks then faster is not always neccessary
