[Speed] [SE PA] Increased Internet Speeds

I received a letter today stating the new HD channels, and also surprisingly an internet speed jump. I have the 40 Mb service so according to the letter it should have jumped to 50 Mb on December 29th 2011.

I run speed Tests at least three times a month to the NY server with »www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ . I am still getting my typical but fluctuating 35 - 40Mb. When will the end consumer start to see the speed increase detailed in the letter. I know these things can take a little time

I upgraded to the 25 Mbps/2000 Kbps plan last Friday, but am seeing only 19.74 Mbps/883 Kbps as of today, after a couple of tests. That is no big deal, but if I don't see more in a couple of weeks, I think I will call.

Guys Post your encoded macs pls?

Or when you goto RCN test servers does it show you provisioned for the correct speeds?

Sorry Negativeduck. I did not see the sticky on the encoded MACs. That is my fault.

Encoded Mac: 693891f6924284dac579c24b18896d6da3df2273

When I run RCNs Speedtests it appears I already have the increase

NY 57.3 Mbps
PA 62.6 Mbps

Weird I never saw such a difference between the client side of the network as opposed to the server side

It just took a call to customer service, who re-provisioned my cable modem, though it seems to have been mainly a problem with my router. But after rebooting everything (a couple of times), I am now doing 26 Mbps down and 2.1 Mpbs up. That looks very good to me.
