Re: [Speed] Comcast Business Class Speed Upgraded in California

said by ropeguru:

Lucky you. I used to see powerboost speeds in excess of 100Mb. Best I can do now on speed tests, even Comcast's local speed test, is 36Mb down and 7Mb up. Looks like I have gotten royally screwed.

Yes, damn those real-world, sustained use speed upgrades that you received. Obviously you got cornholed.

Yes I did as most of the downloading I do is not long term and sustained. I greatly benefited from the short bursts. I don't download binaries from news groups like so many here complain about.

You were never intended to get those bursts to begin with. Deal with it.

No, I will not.

Business, at least at the 22/5 package, has ALWAYS gotten power boost. Before you go off spouting off to something you have no clue about, go read up on it first!

I have business 22/5 (aka, 27/7) at the office, as evidenced by the fact that I confirmed that I'm receiving the new speeds. Not sure what type of crack you're smoking saying that I'm "spouting off." 22/5 has always had the ridiculous powerboost thing, but that has always been a bonus. Nowhere in the contract that I, or you, signed does it say that we're entitled to 100+ burst download speeds and 35+ burst upload speeds.

Now, based on the speedtest that I just did, it appears that that tier still has PB. I tested it at 38/8, which is still above and beyond what the contract states that I should be getting. Be glad you don't have the 50/10 business class; there's no PB at all on that tier.

You are "spouting off" as when I signed up, it was confirmed as part of the package from my sales person. You are not in my martket and have no idea what was in the contract I signed. However, by your know it all attitude and arrogance, you can a take flying leap!
