Re: That's nice but.. I can do 35 Mbps wirelessly with my router with ease...50-60 Mbps with tuning, even more when close to my AP. Wired, I can do north of 100 Mbps. That said, if I got 250Mbps service I would likely upgrade my router, or start renting one from Comcast that could handle that speed. You do know that their $5 modem rental fee includes a wireless router, right?
That said, I'd rather have 35/35 than 250/20. I would also rather have 35/35 for $85 than 250/35 for $150. I'd be willing to eat equipment upgrade costs but 35 Mbps down and up means that most servers I visit will be able to deliver content at that speed and I'll be able to upload stuff quickly as well.
That said, I'm not going to bash the existence of a 250 Mbps tier; more speed available on residential/SMB tiers is never a bad thing. |
