Re: Upgraded 12/2 Mbps Performance tier turns in good speed/$

I get 31/11 Mbps on PowerBoost with my 22/5 service. The 5 Mbps upload speed is a godsend for throwing around TIF and PDF files between my computer and my school newspaper server via VPN.

I actually upgraded to 50/10 for a little while and used the upload boost to back up my system in a few days (over 230GB of stuff). I'm sure I went past 250GB that month however my node isn't anywhere near saturated so apparently Comcast doesn't have a problem with that.

FWIW apparently PowerBoost is capped now on uploads and downloads. I'm curious as to what the cap is on Blast (the tier that frankly doesn't matter at this point). I know Extreme is around 60 Mbps down and 20 Mbps up (contrary to what Comcast says there IS PowerBoost on Extreme), Performance is 15.5/8 and Ultra is 31/11.5 or thereabouts.
