Anyone In Cleveland, Ohio with Ultimate Internet?

Can anyone in the Cleveland, Ohio area that has Cox Ultimate Internet let me know what your upload speeds are? I can never get more than 5.9Mbps and I am suppose to get 8Mbps.

I think across the entire cox footprint, upload on ultimate is 5mbps[5.5 w/ powerboost]

the website might say 8 but as long as you're getting your 5mbps, theres no issue.
powerboost is being clamped down in many areas[we are]

Ah so that's why I can never get close to 8. They shouldn't advertise that you can get 8Mbps upload speed, that's more than a bit deceitful. The faster upload was one of the main reasons I picked Cox over WOW (they offer only 5Mbps upload).

I'm in the Cleveland area and have a Preferred Internet account and I consistantly get 7 Meg upload speeds. My download speeds are typically in the mid twenties.

So, are they no longer offering 50 megs down on ult?? If so, I'm dropping it down to premier, which is now 35 megs down here.
