Re: [Speed] Northeast speed changes coming.

Remember that previously 35/6 was not a sustained rate, but a PowerBoosted rate so large files you would probably have less bandwidth during the download or upload. The previous rates were 25/4 so you were getting good speeds.

I have a SB6120 also and was on Ultra in Alexandria and only getting 33/7. Downgraded to Blast and now getting 50-55 down and 9.8-10.5. On average probably 52/10.

true true. i ran previous tests though (not on speedtest.net) and was getting around 30mbps steadily. this was tested via ftp transfers, looking at average speed, peak speed, etc.

for the same $72.99 i'll certainly take the upgrade...
